The most frustrating thing about being an online student is setting up a social network where students can socialize, study together, and keep each other informed of important issues. We are in the process of setting up a chat room for our online sorority and study group.

Sometimes there were unclear directions for assignments. I remember this because my GPA dropped from a 3.4 to 3.13. It was the finals in two classes that had the unclear directions, It lead me to recieve two C's.

Finding all the research that is needed. Getting those to leave you alone long enough to get your assignments done. Th way some qustions are phrased. The way others thing it might not be for you because of your age. No support from your employer or other employees

Not being able to see the other students.

It is hard trying to complete team projects with classmates acroos the United States. You have to communicate via email, forums, and telephone. It is hard to get everyone together to get the projects done.

Probably the fact that sometimes it is time consuming.

I felt like I have been lied to. They ask annoying questions in an interview process. Financial aid was a nightmare. I am feeling depressed because I may have to pay out of pocket expenses, which I clearly don't have. I am unemployed. They say they will work with you, when in reality they won't. If you fail or drop a class, then you have to pay for it, so it's double the amount. So it pricey if you are struggling.

The most frustrating thing was that my advisor was changged several times during my 2.5 yrs at the university.

The learning teams are difficult because of the time zone differences between team members, lack of responsibility of some team members, and uneven levels of member contributions. I felt that in most of my classes I had to save the team from missing or not completing an assignment. If we had a live chat forum instead of just a message forum to the learning teams, I think that they would operate better and I would be more satisfied with the process. It is hard to find students who are as motivated, organized, and diligent as I am.

I think that the most frustrating about my school is just the attendance policy because my schedule with working a full time job and being a parent makes it somewhat hard to manage the time to focus on my attendance and just enough time to complete my assignments. However, other than that, there is nothing frustrating about my school.
