List of online colleges in the United States
Appearance
Below is a list of schools that offer virtual or online education programs and are accredited by an accrediting body recognized by the US Department of Education.[1] The Distance Education Accrediting Commission is the primary accrediting body that recognizes online schools, but not all schools on this list are accredited by that agency. This list includes schools that offer fully online programs exclusively, as well as schools that offer at least one fully online program in addition to campus offerings. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many of the colleges and universities in the United States offered classes entirely online, particularly facilitated via Zoom.[2]
