One of the common shortcomings of an online degree is the lack of community-building. Many pursuing an online graduate degree often prioritize completion speed for to grow their careers, but consequently, these students miss out on some of the socialization and networking opportunities available to those in traditional or seated programs. An important component of education is creating bonds with classmates; learning and growing with those in your cohort.
