Needham, Mass. - A new survey by the Sloan Consortium, an association of higher education institutions and organizations committed to online education, indicates that the number of students taking at least one online course in the current semester hit 3.2 million, up from 2.3 million a year ago.

"This is the largest study to date and it tells us online learning is growing without any sign of a plateau," said Jeff Seaman, chief information officer and survey director at the Sloan Consortium, which is administered through Babson College and Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering.

Sloan's fourth annual survey is a collaborative effort with the College Board and is based upon responses from more than 2,200 colleges and universities nationwide.
