Online learning myths are persistent and insidious.
Going online to shop, catch up with friends, or even to check your bank account probably feels like second nature to you.
Going online to get a college education? Maybe not so much.
But why not? We teamed up with Starbucks—whose Starbucks College Achievement Plan fully reimburses the tuition cost of an online bachelor’s degree program at Arizona State University—to give you the truth behind seven of the most common myths about online learning.

Barista Application Tip!
Did you know you can submit your application to up to 5 stores at one time? In order to stand out after submitting your application, stop by the store(s) you applied to and introduce yourself to the manager or shift supervisor. Let them know you recently applied and what excites you about the opportunity. If you don’t get a call for an interview within 60 days, you can re-apply to the same or different stores. Good luck!
