This paper describes distance education offerings available in Autumn 2012 that were accredited by the Puerto Rico Council of Higher Education (PRCHE) at the associate, bachelor and master’s degree. Also, it identifies the institutions and the academic discipline where that program modality is provided. Findings revealed that in autumn a total of 63 programs were offered by eight Institutions of Higher Education (IHE), 60% of them were available through the Inter American University of Puerto Rico system. Also, findings revealed that programs in business and education are the most common offerings. Moreover, graduate programs comprise half of the distance learning offerings in Puerto Rico.
