Online Phd Degree - Is It Right For You? Posted By: Emily Sismour

Going back to graduate school is an investment that takes time and commitment; make sure you're ready. Graduate school is not for the faint of heart. Some people choose to attend right after their undergraduate years, others go after gaining the recommended work experience, and still others go while working a full-time job. For all of these situations, an online PhD degree could be something to consider as you weigh your choices with your lifestyle, finances and career goals. Below are some questions to ask yourself when considering returning to school for your online PhD degree. Do you have the discipline to commit? Be honest with yourself.

You need to be able to juggle many things at once; assignments, discussions, lectures and readings, without the normal structure of a classroom. Since nearly all of it is online, barring the required clinicals or research in a lab, you need to keep tabs of dates and times, participate in a meaningful way in online discussions or chats, and schedule your own time around the clinicals and research.
