Academics
Studying online: a small share study entirely online
In Fall 2023, 172 of The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston's 5,048 students (3%) were enrolled entirely at a distance. A further 1,613 (32%) took at least one distance course alongside in-person study.
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.
