Default Re: Masters compete

I have read through some of your other posts about the program and had a couple of lingering questions...

1. How and where did you complete the research for your written assignments?

2. What would you estimate to be a general weekly time commitment to complete 6-9 hours of coursework each semester?

Any other advice you would give to any potential students of the MSA distance learning program would also be appreciated. Thanks.

1. How and where did you complete the research for your written assignments?

Depended upon the assignment. Some I could do complete internet research, or research through different websites the school will give you passwords to use. Others I went to the library. A couple I contacted companies and got information directly from aircraft manufacturers. Bottom line is that you go where you need to go to get what you need. I could often do what I needed while on the road.



2. What would you estimate to be a general weekly time commitment to complete 6-9 hours of coursework each semester?

9 hours is a ton of work. 6 is more manageable and some weeks I didn't do much followed (or preceeded) where I'd spend 20 hours on a project. Again, it depends. Some classes were a real bear, and others were quite easy.

Any other advice you would give to any potential students of the MSA distance learning program would also be appreciated. Thanks.

If you're going to do it, get started. It won't get any easier. Also, I was able to use my GI Bill benefits, which helped a ton.

Good luck,
