I have been taking online college classes since September. Right now I'm having a bad time. I've a bunch of assignments due in the next few days. I could have made time, but I've been having a hard time getting motivated and I've been in a lot of pain. Plus, I recently got switched to new meds, and I've been distracted a lot because my brother in laws in bad health and I myself have to admit myself to the hospital soon to get tests done. So it's just been hard for me to focus because of all this stuff. Two of the assignments are big ones. I knew about them but like I said, I'm so distracted lately and haven't had any motivation either. I can probably still get them done if I really bust my butt, but......I don't know.

Can you get extensions on the assignments? Maybe if the instructors know it's due to medical reasons they'd give you a break? Good luck.
Thanks for this!

I guess it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Can you get disability accommodations? I know you're entitled to them in the USA but I have no idea how that works for an online school....or are you just taking online classes for a school that has a local campus?
