You are a distance learning student. We all know what this means... long hours locked in the study room, pouring over books and online resources, never seeing the light of day, much less other people! But does it have to be this way? The answer is a firm "No!" Student Community Director Brittany Wellvang shares how she kept in touch with the "real" world while studying, and how this has made an impact on her and the lives of others.
But she is not the only one! Two more students, recorded at the recent Minnesota CollegePlus! get-together, echo her thoughts and share some insights of their own.
As these students have said, it is certainly possible to live in community and pursue your accredited bachelor's degree through distance learning. So banish those fears of becoming a study hermit, and take this short survey on how we can help you stay connected as a CollegePlus! student. Click here to help CollegePlus! keep you connected!

Ditto that! I've been tremendously blessed by everyone on the CollegePlus! forums and on Skype, and look forward to being able to connect with others in an even more personal way soon!
