Going for a Masters in something you've never studies - have I lost my mind?

Oh, that's different, it's a "do or do not" thing. Then do! Smile

In my recent and limited experience, these are normal feelings, too. It is challenging to learn about all of the policies, especially on your own and at a distance. I've read the website for the program multiple times. I've asked the program coordinator and current and former students many questions. I've made several mistakes. I've also made friends in the class, and we can help each other navigate some of the potential pitfalls. During this course, the people who run the program, including the instructor, know that this is our first course and have helped with our many questions. Also, there was an online orientation just a few weeks before the first course started. It covered a lot of important topics.

It will be okay; just keep doing what you need to do to get ready for this new adventure!
