My experience at Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA) was smooth sailing. After attending classes in person my first semester, I chose to complete my remaining courses online. I found that online learning provided more flexibility, as I had the option to finish a course at my own pace. I also had the opportunity to choose the length of my classes ranging from 4-15 weeks depending on how accelerated I preferred my learning to be. NOVA Online allowed me to obtain the same quality of learning as in person classes, and continue to maintain my personal responsibilities.
