Online education and on-campus education have key differences, each with unique advantages.
First, price. Online programs tend to be significantly more affordable than on-campus options.
Second, flexibility. Studying online allows you to learn anytime, anywhere, and at your own pace. You’re not confined to a classroom or tied to a professor’s schedule.
Third, community. On-campus programs offer face-to-face connections and the chance to build long-term relationships. Online education provides networking opportunities with people from across the globe.
Both options have value, depending on your goals and circumstances.
