Academics
Studying online: no students were enrolled entirely at a distance
In Fall 2023, none of San Francisco Bay University's 328 students were enrolled entirely at a distance, though 152 (46%) took at least one distance course. That is a count of how students enrolled, not a list of what is offered online.
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.
