30 Largest Non Profit Online Colleges

[ss20ts]

There are a lot of familiar names on that list and not many surprises.  One small surprise is Boston University.  It's a biggish school with a very good academic reputation but it also comes with a big price tag.  I'm a little surprised that so many people are willing to pay that price but what the hell, it's only money, I guess.

... Cornell isn't cheap yet they have far more applicants than openings every year. Same with Harvard, Yale, Princeton, USC, Baylor, etc. 

Yeah, you're right.  Except none of those schools is in the top 30 online universities.

Because online programs aren't their main focus. Penn State is the list and they're Ivy League. Johns Hopkins is on the list and that's not exactly a crappy school.
