Newsweek Ranks Delgado among Top Online Colleges in America

November 11, 2022

Newsweek magazine’s annual rankings of the Top Online Colleges in America have been released for 2023. Delgado Community College is at Number 126 on the publication’s list of 200 outstanding online colleges and universities.

In Louisiana, only LSU appears with Delgado on the list of Top Online Colleges in America. The state’s flagship university’s LSU Online division is ranked at number 64.

The rankings are based on an online survey among U.S. residents who have used online learning services to obtain an academic degree or acquire knowledge and skills for their job (professional development) or hobbies (personal development).

Between June 20 and August 29, 2022, Statista surveyed about 9,000 individuals in the United States. Survey respondents indicated which institutions they used to obtain an online degree or where they attended an online course. In the next step, respondents shared their experiences by rating the institutions regarding several criteria. Finally, respondents could indicate how satisfied they were with the organization and to what extent they would recommend it to others.
