Once I completed my Certificate in Public Health from the University of North Texas in Public Health, I decided to transfer to George Washington University’s Milken Institute School of Public Health (MPH@GW). Coincidentally, MPH@GW and Yale’s online PA program use the same online software, 2U. Through the virtual classroom on 2U, I was able to connect with faculty and colleagues for live discussions and immersive coursework. I was enrolled in at least 12-15 hours per semester which all consisted of rigorous exams, papers, projects, and weekly live sessions. I am also prepared to secure sites for clinical rotations as it is similar to how I secured my position at the Houston Health Department for my practicum and culminating experience. I graduated …show more content…
I truly benefitted from the expertise of the faculty and the interactions between my classmates as I got to connect as their expertise spanned many areas of public health and medicine. I believe that I also gained more knowledge and learned significantly more as I had to learn a lot on my own and get through difficult materials without help from other students or professors. This took time, however, I gained much more fluency and am comfortable with public health topics. Regardless of my proven success in an online program, I need to improve on completing my assignments during the day, rather than at night. Since online classes do not require you to be present on campus, it was easy to push assignments off until midnight or even later, however I know that this is something I need to improve on, especially with clinical rotations during the daytime. Overall, I feel that I thrive in an online setting because I can create my own schedule between life, work and school while advancing my own

George Washington is regarded as a natural leader and the father of our country. He was the first president under the Constitution, not the first president of the United States. From the very beginning, he came into a job full of problems and a mile long to-do list. He had to set up the Judiciary Branch, deal with uprisings and conflicts between the natives and the western settlers, and try to keep together a nation that was falling apart. He created a group of advisors (the cabinet) to help him with certain issues. He had a few things on his mind at the time such as: stay out of a war, build up revenue to pay off Revolutionary War debt, and try to make peace with England.

When George reached his late years of his childhood disasters struck the Washington household. On Christmas Eve of “1740”, a fire burned the inside of the house on Ferry Farm, then a couple years later Augustine Washington died. They still lived on the farm and worked on the plantations with slaves.
Before I answer the questions posed, I believe an explanation is owed regarding this request for admission into Saybrook. I originally applied to The Chicago School of Professional Psychology seeking a degree in business psychology. Since the program was not ready to start for another year, it was suggested that I take courses in the international psychology program. I thoroughly enjoyed this new experience with an opportunity to “think global”. I optioned to remain in this program with a concentration in organizations and systems. As I sojourned through, I was always aware that there was still something missing. Although I loved being part of the IP program, my roots are deeply entrenched in the world of organizational development (OD).

By attending the Yale School of Drama Graduate Design Program, I will develop my process for formulating ideas and gain more specialized knowledge in scenic design.

Online classes and the traditional classroom setting both offer many of the same advantages. They both provide the student with the same course content so there is no loss of curriculum between the two. Both demand the same time investment for learning, studying, taking exams, completing papers, and so on. Although it seems easy to think that with doing all of your school work online there isn’t any personal interaction with professors and peers, however, that is a common misconception. Online classes, like traditional ones, require a degree of contact with your peers and professors. It may not be as personal interaction as raising your hand and being called on, but you can e-mail your professor at any time and there are discussion boards and forums available for fellow students to communicate and help each other out.
Throughout my entire life, I have always been one to constantly push myself and pursue new challenges. In high school, I excelled academically while also being a three-sport athlete, a member of the National Honor Society, and held an active presence in my community. In the classroom, for as long as I can remember, I’ve been intellectually curious and fascinated with solving problems through quantitative reasoning. The desire to continue my education in a quantitative field and gain important soft skills, while also boasting the ability to be involved in many extracurriculars led me to pursue a degree in economics from DePauw University. In a constantly changing industry such as finance, it is imperative that one is able to adapt quickly and think outside of the box, and DePauw has prepared me to do just that. I
Students who are prone to procrastination will have a difficult time adjusting to online classes. Hours of work are necessary to get through all of the materials, including course lectures, educational videos, assignments, projects, assigned textbook reading and discussions. For students who are getting an online degree, especially an online master’s degree, require a greater amount of work.
Students are required to learn massive amounts of course material. It is mandatory to learn at the instructor’s pace. Online courses give flexibility while scheduling to learn this material. Students are overwhelmed with homework throughout the duration of each class. Some have up to four classes of homework due weekly. It can be difficult for many to absorb all the material while scheduling work and home life. Trying to arrange the balance of each can be tiring for the body and mind. When taking online classes, there is an advantage to have the capability to learn the subject when the brain and body are ready to handle it. This flexibility can give the benefit of the full focus on schoolwork. On-campus classes give the benefit of help on the spot when needed, but students that take a
