In addition, 16 percent had 501 to 1,000 enrollments, 17 percent reported enrollments of 1,001 to 2,500, and 15 percent reported more than 2,500 enrollments for the 2000–2001 academic year.
An estimated 127,400 different distance education courses for any level or audience were offered by 2- and 4-year institutions during the 12-month 2000–2001 academic year (Table 6). An estimated 118,100 different college-level, credit-granting distance education courses were offered, with 76 percent at the undergraduate level.
