Why your state still matters for online study
Distance study has no postcode, but the price and the paperwork do. Most public institutions charge residents less than non-residents, including for online courses at many of them, and states authorise which out-of-state institutions may enrol their residents at all. Starting from the colleges in New Hampshire is therefore usually starting from the cheaper and simpler end, which is the only sense in which an online college is “in” a state.
New Hampshire colleges where students actually study online
Every New Hampshire college where at least 25% of students were enrolled entirely at a distance and at least 50students did so, ordered by how many. Share alone would let a twenty-student campus open the list ahead of a community college teaching thousands at a distance. It is a measurement of enrolment, not a ranking, and nobody paid to be on it.
177,807 of 184,099 students enrolled entirely at a distance, and 943 more took at least one distance course · private · published tuition $16,450 in-state.
759 of 2,613 students enrolled entirely at a distance, and 632 more took at least one distance course · public · published tuition $7,200 in-state / $15,450 out-of-state.
366 of 967 students enrolled entirely at a distance, and 159 more took at least one distance course · private · published tuition $21,208 in-state.
190 of 674 students enrolled entirely at a distance, and 204 more took at least one distance course · public · published tuition $6,940 in-state / $15,190 out-of-state.
Tuition shown is the published institution-wide rate, not the price of an online programme. Many colleges price online study on a separate schedule, and some charge a single rate regardless of where the student lives, so treat them as headline figures for the institution and confirm the online rate with the institution.
What this list is not
- It is not the complete set of your options. It counts students, not programmes. A college below the threshold may run an excellent online degree that few students happened to take exclusively that term, and residents of New Hampshire can enrol with institutions anywhere.
- It is not a ranking. A high share describes how an institution enrols, not how good it is. Some of the largest shares belong to institutions worth reading carefully before applying, which is why every row links to the full profile with cost, debt and graduation figures.
- It is one term. These are Fall 2023 enrolments, on the federal reporting cycle.

Source & methodology
Enrolment figures are from the U.S. Department of Education, IPEDS Fall Enrollment (distance education status), Fall 2023. Published tuition and control are from CampusPin's committed institution snapshot. Federal data is public domain; credit the U.S. Department of Education.
Distance-education figures count STUDENTS enrolled in Fall 2023, not programs on offer. "Exclusively at a distance" means a student took only distance courses that term. A college with few or no such students may still run online courses or an online degree, so a low figure is not evidence that online study is unavailable, and a high one is not a judgement of quality either way.
