Compared to several years ago when for-profit enrollment was at a peak, all these experts point out, one big thing has changed. There are now a group of big nonprofit and public institutions targeting working adults with workforce-focused, on-demand learning. In other words, these companies are following the playbook laid out by for-profits, but with a better reputation — at least for now. “Southern New Hampshire. Arizona State. Western Governors’. Now Purdue,” says McDonnell. “Who can argue that online isn’t the future of learning?” [SNHU has 63,000 students; ASU has 72,000; WGU 86,000; Purdue 74,000 online and on campus].
