Enrollment in Distance Education Courses, by State: Fall 2012

Postsecondary enrollment in distance education courses, particularly those offered online, has rapidly increased in recent years (Allen and Seaman 2013). Traditionally, distance education offerings and enrollment levels have varied across different types of institutions. For example, researchers have found that undergraduate enrollment in at least one distance education course is most common at public 2-year institutions, while undergraduate enrollment in online degree programs was most common among students attending for-profit institutions (Radford 2011).

A 2003 study found that historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and tribal colleges and universities (TCUs) offered fewer distance education courses compared with other institutions, possibly due to their smaller average size (Government Accountability Office 2003). Rapidly changing developments, including recent institutional and policy focus on massive open online courses (MOOCs) and

other distance education innovations, have changed distance education offerings.

The 2012 Fall Enrollment component of the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) survey collected data for the first time on enrollment in courses in which instructional content was delivered exclusively through distance education, defined in IPEDS as "education that uses one or more technologies to deliver instruction to students who are separated from the instructor and to support regular and substantive interaction between the students and the instructor synchronously or asynchronously." These Web Tables provide a current profile of enrollment in distance education courses across states and in various types of institutions. They are intended to serve as a useful baseline for tracking future trends, particularly as certain states and institutions focus on MOOCs and other distance educa-

tion initiatives from a policy perspective.

Student Enrollment Tables 1-10 of these Web Tables show the numbers and percentages of students at Title IV institutions in fall 2012 who were enrolled exclusively in distance education courses, enrolled in some distance education courses, and not enrolled in any distance education courses, by state and across different types of institutions. Tables 1 and 2 summarize overall enrollment in distance education courses of students at all levels (undergraduate and graduate), by control and level of institution and various institutional characteristics (table 1) and by state (table 2). Table 3 focuses exclusively on degree/certificate-seeking and nondegree/certificate-seeking undergraduates and examines their enrollment in distance education courses by state. Tables 4-9 show undergraduate and graduate enrollment in distance education courses by state across different

institutional controls and levels. Table 10 highlights distance education undergraduate enrollment in HBCUs and TCUs, as compared with other institutions.

Student Location One of distance education's cited benefits is wider geographical access to higher education, in that students have flexibility to attend institutions outside of their state of residence. Relevant to this, tables 11-19 present new IPEDS data on the location of students enrolled exclusively in distance education courses in fall 2012. Specifically, these tables show whether these students were located in the same state as the institution they attended, in a different state or U.S. jurisdiction, or outside the United States.

Table 11 summarizes student location by student level, control and level of institution, and other institutional characteristics. Table 12 further displays data on student location by student level and state. Table 13 focuses exclusively on degree/certificateseeking and non-degree/certificateseeking undergraduates and examines their location relative to their institution, by state. Tables 14-19 present location data for undergraduate and graduate students, by state, across the different controls and levels of institution.

These tables are intended to provide a useful baseline for tracking trends in student location, particularly as regulations that affect institutions' ability to offer distance education programs across state lines change. In addition, they shed further light on a problem highlighted in Ginder and Sykes (2013), namely, that state-level analyses are based on the assumption that students live in the state where they attend school, but distance education may render this assumption invalid. These data are intended to help clarify the magnitude of the issue by showing what percentage of distance learners affiliated with various institutions are located out of state.

DATA

Data in these tables were collected through the Institutional Characteristics and Fall Enrollment components of the IPEDS survey. The Institutional Characteristics component collects basic data on each institution such as institution name, location, educational offerings, control or affiliation, admission requirements, and student services. The Fall Enrollment component consists of six parts, of which data from part A were used in these analyses. Among other details, part A collects the number of students enrolled by level of student (undergraduate or graduate), distance education status (enrolled exclusively in distance education courses; enrolled in some, but not all, distance education courses; or not enrolled in distance education courses), and location of students exclusively enrolled in distance education courses (in the same state as the institution; in the United States, but not in the same state as the institution; outside of the United States; or unknown).

IPEDS is the core postsecondary education data collection program for NCES. Institution-level data are collected from postsecondary institutions in the United States (50 states and the District of Columbia) and other U.S. jurisdictions. For IPEDS, a postsecondary institution is defined as an organization open to the public that has the provision of postsecondary education as one of its primary missions. IPEDS defines post-

2

secondary education as formal instructional programs with a curriculum designed primarily for students who are beyond the compulsory age for high school. This includes institutions that offer academic, vocational, and continuing professional education programs and excludes institutions that offer only avocational (leisure) and adult basic education programs. Data collected via IPEDS cover a variety of areas, including institutional prices, enrollments, graduation rates, program completions, student financial aid, institutional finance, and human resources.

TECHNICAL NOTES

During the 2012-13 IPEDS collection cycle, the level of detail required in the reporting of distance education enrollment for undergraduate students for private less-than-4-year nondegree-granting institutions differed when compared with other types of institutions. In particular, these institutions were not asked to report undergraduate students by degree/ certificate-seeking status. Hence, tables that include these institutions and display data by degree/certificate-seeking status will not sum to the appropriate overall undergraduate total.

NOTE: Title IV institutions are those with a written agreement with the Secretary of Education that allows the institution to participate in any of the Title IV federal student financial assistance programs. Although they are not Title IV eligible, four of the

U.S. service academies are included in the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) universe because they are federally funded and open to the public. Definitions for terms used in this table may be found in the IPEDS online

glossary located at .

NOTE: Title IV institutions are those with a written agreement with the Secretary of Education that allows the institution to participate in any of the Title IV federal student

financial assistance programs. Although they are not Title IV eligible, four of the U.S. service academies are included in the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data

System (IPEDS) universe because they are federally funded and open to the public. Private less-than-4-year non-degree-granting institutions do not report distance

education enrollment by degree/certificate-seeking status, hence the 387,713 undergraduate students enrolled at these institutions are not included in this table.

Definitions for terms used in this table may be found in the IPEDS online glossary located at .
