Any doubt about that can be set aside by simply looking at the numbers. When it comes to online education, TSUS is seizing the initiative. As of Fall 2018, among the six public university systems in Texas, TSUS leads the way in the percentage of students pursuing their degrees fully online, with 14%. The Texas State University System is uniquely positioned to move forward as the state’s leader in online education. Courses and degree programs offered online are increasingly important tools within the Texas State University System to address issues of both college access and student success. TSUS institutions plan to increase online education opportunities to support the growing interest among Texas students and families. Over the past six years, the number of degree programs offered fully online and semester credit hours earned online have increased dramatically. Through programs offered online, students can log on to class using any computer with internet access—at home, at work, at the local library, or on campus, and anytime—24 hours a day, seven days a week.Distance LearningOnline EducationOnline Degree ProgramsStudent Enrollment DataSam Houston State UniversityLamar State UniversityTexas State UniversitySul Ross State UniversitySul Ross State University Rio Grande CollegeLamar State College Port ArthurLamar State College OrangeLamar Institute of TechnologyOther
