Enrollment and Retention

For the 2024-2025 academic year we have 1,926 students enrolled at Champlain College Online. Of those, 397 are new to the institution.  Champlain College Online currently has a retention rate of 77%. A student is considered retained if one year after they enroll they are still enrolled, or active in their program but not enrolled (for instance, taking a term off) or have completed their program and graduated during that academic year. 

Enrollment By Program

There are eight primary program areas housing our enrollments. Cybersecurity is our largest, with 31% of all enrollments, next is Technology (27%) and Business (25%). Accounting (5%), Healthcare (4%), Marketing (3%), Social Science (3%) and Gaming (2%) round out the fields of study. 

It is no surprise that the top two undergraduate degree programs at CCO are Cybersecurity with over 300 enrollments and just under 200 in computer forensics and digital investigations. Business Management is a close third, with almost 150 enrollments. The Computer Information Systems and Software Development programs have just shy of 100 students. 

The MBA is by far CCO's largest graduate program, with almost double the amount of students in the second largest program, Digital Forensic Science (100 enrollments). Information Security, Information Technology, and Healthcare Administration round out the top five.
