Corinthian's Exclusively Online Student Population Tops 2,000

Corinthian Colleges, Inc. today announced that its exclusively online student population is 2,035, exceeding the company's goal of 2,000 exclusively online students by the fiscal 2004 year end on June 30. The company also announced that Florida Metropolitan University (FMU) has received approval from the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools to award three additional degrees that may be earned through exclusively online studies. The new degrees will be offered through FMU's online campus, FMU Online, and include bachelor of science and associate of science degrees in homeland security, and a bachelor of science degree in paralegal. FMU Online expects to begin enrolling students for these three new degree programs in July 2004. "The popularity of Corinthian's distance learning programs continues to accelerate," said David G. Moore, chairman and chief executive officer. "The growth of our online initiatives reflects the high quality of our online curricula and faculty, as well as student demand for this popular and flexible learning alternative."
