Studying online from New Hampshire generally means enrolling at an institution that holds accreditation from a recognized institutional accreditor, whether based in-state or elsewhere, and completing coursework remotely. For residents, one of the biggest cost variables is whether a program bills in-state or out-of-state tuition; many public universities extend in-state or reduced online rates to state residents even for programs delivered entirely online, so it is worth confirming residency-based pricing directly with the admissions office before comparing offers, since published tuition figures are not consistently reported for every school.
Our directory currently lists 17 New Hampshire institutions that report offering at least one fully online program (IPEDS/College Scorecard data in our directory). None of these schools currently report an in-state tuition figure in the underlying dataset, so a statewide median cannot be calculated from our directory at this time. Because of that gap, prospective students should request current tuition quotes directly from each school’s admissions office rather than relying on a single published average.
The schools below offer at least one fully online program and are drawn from our directory of accredited institutions. They are ordered by our independent BOC Score, which weighs factors like affordability, graduation outcomes, and online program availability rather than reputation alone.
Every school list on this site is ordered by the BOC Score, computed from the most recent school-level data published by the U.S. Department of Education (College Scorecard and IPEDS). To qualify, a school must be currently operating and accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. Each eligible school is then scored on five measures, percentile-ranked against schools at the same credential level:
Schools without enough outcome data appear after ranked schools, without a score. Advertising never affects these rankings. Read the full methodology.

Accreditation status is the first thing to confirm for any online program, in New Hampshire or elsewhere. The U.S. Department of Education’s Database of Accredited Postsecondary Institutions and Programs (DAPIP) lets you search a school by name and see its current, recognized accreditor. A school being accredited typically refers to recognition from an institutional accreditor recognized by the U.S. Department of Education; examples include the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), SACSCOC, ACCSC, and DEAC. Transferability of credits and eligibility for certain licensure-track programs can differ by school and program. If you plan to pursue a licensed profession, such as nursing, teaching, or counseling, also check that the specific program carries any required programmatic accreditation, since institutional accreditation alone does not guarantee that.
Most online programs at the schools below use a learning management system for lectures, assignments, and discussion boards, with coursework completed asynchronously on a weekly schedule rather than at fixed class times, though some programs do include live sessions. Admissions requirements, credit transfer policies, and program length vary by school and by degree level, so it is worth requesting information from a few schools before narrowing your choice. Because published tuition data is limited for New Hampshire’s online programs in our directory, contacting schools directly is especially important when budgeting.
The schools listed above are ranked using our published BOC Score methodology, which combines affordability indicators, graduation outcomes, and confirmed online program availability into a single comparative score. The methodology page explains each factor and how it is weighted, so you can see exactly why a school appears where it does in the list.

None of the New Hampshire schools in our directory that offer online programs currently report an in-state tuition figure in the underlying IPEDS/College Scorecard data, so no median can be computed. Request current pricing directly from each school.
