OEDb's Online College Rankings 2011: Ranking by Online Programs

A substantial number of online program offerings allow students to obtain the exact degree they’re looking for and take courses that mostly pertain to their area of interest. The more programs the college offers, the more students they will be able to educate and reach out to. To acquire the number of online programs each college has, we went through each individual college’s official website and counted the number of programs they noted were offered online. Only online programs that could be completed entirely online were included.

The data in the “Online Programs” column refers to the number of online programs that were counted on the college’s official website on July 14, 2011.
