This week, you are asked to explain to people who are interested in attending Grantham what it will take to be successful as an online college student. Refer to the materials presented in the first four weeks of this course (written lectures, textbooks, videos).

Your paper should start with a statement or a claim about what it takes to be a successful student in an online college. (This is called your argument – refer to Pocket Keys for Writers chapter 3a).

Throughout the rest of the paper, you will support your argument by providing descriptions, explanations or examples of the mindsets, skillsets, and tips for success that you believe to be relevant.

The paper should be 750 words, (using a font such as 12 pt. Times New Roman). Use Microsoft Word to prepare your assignment. You will attach the Word document to the assignment dropbox (do not type directly into the dropbox).
