Emporia State University Reviews

"Really great program so far. I enjoy taking the hybrid classes, meeting with my cohorts and professors face to face every month really helps keep me on track and inspires me in my field. The SLIM program really stresses networking with peers and existing professionals, and I think this is important at this level of study."

"Emporia offers a great hybrid, half-time, 2-year program for their Master of Library and Information Science. It's perfect for people who are working and/or raising kids, but who thrive on in-person learning situations.Students belong to a cohort that meets in person two weeks per semester, per class (usually 2 classes per semester). Cohorts run in Kansas, Colorado, Portland Oregon, and Utah."

"I feel that the MLS program is great for working professionals who want to pursue a degree without having to schedule time for classes. The online format allows students to complete their coursework when they have time during the week rather while still maintaining their work schedule. The program is competitive and accredited by the ALA so students can be confident in their skills they learn as ESU."

"The program encourages much interaction among the distance learning students."

"Pros - program encourages socialization between students. Cons -Weekend intensive classes"
