Just be good with time. One thing that I have learned with my online course is time management! Be sure to prioritize what has to be done. I have one child and he is under 2, so it's a little tough he requires a lot of attention!! Just make sure you balance family time with school time. You should do awesome. It is tough at times, but just keep on track! Make a to-do list! Those are all great ways to keep on track :)

I finished my degree online through University of Phoenix and it wasn't too hard to balance school with family. I did my schoolwork after I put the kids to bed or while they were playing outside. It was easier to concentrate that way. Fortunately, at University of Phoenix, there were no tests only participation and a lot of papers to write. It worked well for me, and I had 3 kids at the time under 5. Good Luck
