The new consortium will allow students from the ten participating universities to enroll in and receive credit in a wide range of online course offerings.. Students attending colleges or universities outside the consortium’s universe still can apply to take the courses. According to one source, there is a possibility that other universities will be joining this latest consortium, but nothing has been confirmed as yet. This is 2U’s first venture into online undergraduate platforms. The company’s previous online learning platforms were confined to graduate programs developed in concert with individual universities, such as the online master’s degree in public health offered by George Washington University.
