I feel that most people feel that taking online classes allows errors and cheatine to take place. It is not true. Working in an online setting is just as challenging as any in class session I have ever taken, and their are a lot of ways that school work is checked for plagiarism and cheating is not tolerated.

The stereotype that I have heard at my school is that black are more liable to drop out earlier than anyone. Right now I can not say it is accurate.

Kristen

Considering I take online classes the only stereotype I have come accross is that online learning is easy, therfor not as beneficial. I am not sure the correct term for this, maybe not "real" college students. I do not feel that this stereotype is accurate. I was a campus student in the past, and I feel that my online learning at times becomes more difficult. In most instances online students have to communicate via email, or discussion boards. It is easy to get frustrated when the material is not understood, and it is harder to learn without a "professor" teaching the class. We have a lot of reading material, and basically the professor to ask questions to, and is involved in the discussions at times.

Part of the advantages of an online college student is that there is no peer pressure, no stereotypes, which make transitioning a much smoother process. There is no fitting in with a click and no labeling as being in a click.

The stereotypes of students is that they are not really in school because it is online and that they are too lazy to go to campus. The fact is that some may not be able to go to campus because of financial burdens or because they have children to take care of.

Heather

No not realy any of that.

Tiffany

Everyone that is a student at Everest University Online has been extremely helpful on my journey through college. All of my classmates in my classes have been great and seem to be just as interested in learning as I am.

My school is an online program, so therefore most stereotypes would be people who are good with technology. Would this be considered geeky? It doesn't matter what life style you have as long as you know how to use electronics and are able to figure out the internet easily. Through the internet, stereotypes don't really exist as much.

Robin

One common stereotype is that the students that attend Everest University online are lazy and unable to get into a regular college. This is not true at all. Online classes require more work than some people think.
