Before you start list out your reasons for accepting this journey and what your priorities are. Talk to you family (support network) about those reasons and priorities. Ensure they align with you goals in your life, your career, and your education. Remind yourself of those reasons and priorities throughout the program.

I’ve been able to continue to work, keep up with my hobbies, travel, and relocate internationally (Australia to Alaska). The ability to study whenever wherever is an absolute necessity for me.  The program is set up very effectively and I don’t feel like I’m missing out by not being in person. You just need to remember the resources are there: the instructors, the team, the admin, the tutors, etc.

I’m not saying I’m not busy, because I’m busy all the time between studies, work, and life; but the way the classes are taught and the coursework laid out, the information is retained. Fuqua’s faculty knows how to teach and get the information you need across the line. I’m also impressed how there’s content for all types of learners—videos, reading, practicals, office hours, alt references. The ability to succeed is handed to you, it’s just a matter of taking what you need from the program.
