Online Student Profile: Christian

Christian's job at a company involved in higher education first introduced him to online learning.

Christian was working full time as an information systems manager for a higher education company while going after his bachelor's degree. But he was taking early morning classes before work and late night classes after work. He was burning out...

He turned to online learning with the hopes of easing his schedule, but his college only allowed degree-seeking student to put a certain number of online credits toward a degree.

He finished up his undergraduate degree at William Paterson and quickly enrolled at Walden University to earn his MBA, or master's in business administration, which he nailed down quickly in 2007.

Read about Christian's experience as an online student and see what he's got planned next!
