Abstract	Community colleges in the United States continue to face financial difficulties related to declining enrollment numbers and lower levels of public funding when compared to four-year institutions. Previous scholars have suggested that community colleges may respond to these financial challenges by increasing their commitment to online education. In this study, we examine whether changes in local and state appropriations are related to the total number and relative share of online students at community colleges. Our findings reveal no statistical relationship between changes in local and state appropriations and online enrollment at community colleges, suggesting that the cost structure of online education may complicate this relationship.
