Thanks. The numbers don't seem to add up, but I assume it's because many students are part-time and stay enrolled for many years. And schools that didn't make the list.

99% of colleges did not make the list.  This is just the largest.

A lot of companies have deals with UoP and put their employees through without the employee ever having to see a bill.  My mom went through a cohort BA program (through another school) many years ago, her company paid for it all, the employees just showed up and did the work and never even knew what the tuition was.  it's a nice deal if you can get it (as opposed to your company having tuition reimbursement, which may or may not cover the full cost, and won't pay you back until after you show them your grades for the term).

Plus they cater to working adults, and a lot of times at the local CC or 4-yr school, it's hard to find courses at night.  Plus, with UoP, they do 1 course at a time, 1 night a week, at an accelerated pace.  So you finish that course, and start on the next, and just plug away.  That is almost impossible to do at a local CC or university.

I agree with you.  I am no fan of UoP, but B&M colleges fail adults students in many ways.  They fill a huge gap.
