I don’t know about your experience, but when I graduated college in the early 90s the Internet was just really blossoming; which meant that my college experience was spent in the library rather than in front of a computer and I actually brought a typewriter along with me my freshman year. A typewriter! Imagine the horror!

Things sure have changed. I have young cousins in college now and their academic life is completely centered on what the Internet has to offer them in terms of additional information, research capabilities, and even forums where they can bounce ideas back and forth – a sort of online study group.

I sort of feel sad that I missed out on that time in school; having the Internet at my disposal sure would have made things more convenient for me to say the least. But ironically it looks like I will have the opportunity to have the Internet at my disposal the second time around as I’ve recently looked into going back to school.

I never pursued my graduate degree after earning my undergraduate degree because I felt that I would be wasting an opportunity to grab a great job opportunity that was presented to me. But now that I have leveled off in my career I feel strongly that it’s time to raise my game with the earning of a graduate degree.

This was something that I put a lot of thought into and I worried that I wouldn’t be able to balance everything that I have going on in my life already with a new harried school schedule. That was when I discovered through a significant amount of research that there was the opportunity to earn my online MBA. In fact, through the colleges and universities that I found there was the opportunity for students – in the same situation as me – to earn everything from an online business degree to an online IT degree.

More on my decision to go back to school in the upcoming post…
