Independent Study Requires Discipline and Commitment

Before enrolling in an independent study course, ask yourself:

  • Do you work well on your own or do you prefer to learn with other students?
  • Are you the kind of person who sticks to schedules?
  • Do you have good reading comprehension skills?
  • Do you have good written communication skills?
  • Are you self-motivated? Will you complete the work without anyone there to push you?
