BestOnlineCollege.org is an advertising-supported website. Many of the school and program listings that appear on this site are from partners who compensate us, and this compensation may affect how, where, and in what order listings appear (such as featured placements). This compensation does not influence our editorial content, evaluations, or rankings, which are determined independently using publicly available data. We do not review or feature every school or program available in the marketplace. Our goal is to provide accurate, unbiased information so you can make informed decisions.

Key takeaway: Our directory lists 32 Oregon institutions that offer at least one online program (IPEDS/College Scorecard data in our directory). None of those 32 schools currently reports an in-state tuition figure in our directory, so no median tuition value is available for Oregon at this time – confirm current pricing directly with each institution. Compare accredited options below, ranked by our independent BOC Score.
Online colleges in Oregon give residents a way to earn a degree without relocating or commuting to campus, while often keeping the in-state tuition advantage that public universities extend to residents. Oregon’s public university and community college system generally charges a lower per-credit rate to state residents than to out-of-state students, and that resident rate commonly still applies to fully online coursework – confirm each school’s residency policy for online learners directly, since some institutions charge a flat online rate regardless of state of residence.
Choosing an online program while living in Oregon typically comes down to three factors: cost, accreditation, and program fit.
In-state tuition. Public colleges and universities set separate tuition rates for residents and non-residents. It’s worth calling the admissions or bursar’s office directly to ask whether the online tuition rate matches the on-campus resident rate, since our directory does not currently have a reported in-state tuition figure for any Oregon school that offers an online program.
Accreditation verification. Before applying, confirm that any school you’re considering holds accreditation recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. The fastest way to check is the DAPIP database, which lists every institution’s accrediting agency. A degree from a school without recognized accreditation may not transfer for credit at another institution.
How the list below is ranked. The accredited online colleges shown on this page are ordered by our independent BOC Score, which weighs accreditation status, reported outcomes, and other published data points rather than paid placement.
Before comparing costs or program length, confirm that any school you’re considering holds accreditation recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. You can verify a school’s status directly through the Database of Accredited Postsecondary Institutions and Programs (DAPIP), which is searchable by institution name. Regional or national accreditation affects whether credits transfer and whether employers and licensing boards will recognize your degree, so this check should come before you compare tuition or program length.
The schools listed below are ordered by our BOC Score, a composite measure built from federal graduation rate, median earnings, net price, retention rate, and fully-online availability data published by the U.S. Department of Education. Advertising placement never changes the ranking order; sponsored options are shown separately above the ranked list.
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:
