In a year marked by a deadly pandemic, much of life in 2020 was spent on the internet. That s especially true of education, with colleges scrambling to shift learning online as the coronavirus disrupted daily operations.
Online learning offered students continuity, a chance to finish the semester wherever they were as colleges closed dorms and emptied campuses. Such disruptions, however, were likely limited for online programs, such as those ranked in the 2021 U.S. News Best Online Programs, where the vast majority of coursework is delivered in an online format.
Most of the institutions included in these rankings, released today, have offered online options for years, leading a sector that higher education experts see poised for further growth even once the dust from COVID-19 settles.
