I think it depends on the student, and even the major. From my point of view, a hybrid model would be the best option. If you work all day (as is my case) and then have to go to campus three or four times a week, that would take me about 5 to 8 hours in total. I can dedicate that time to developing assignments, college projects, etc. I like online classes, but this semester I started going to campus (South City) and I’ve enjoyed the experience. But again, I think it depends on each student and their particular situation.
