2U is an education company that operates as an Online Program Manager (OPM), partnering with nonprofit colleges and universities to design, deliver, and support online degree and non-degree programs.

In 2021, 2U acquired edX ( ~$800mm). edX was founded in 2012 by Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology to make high-quality university courses accessible worldwide. At the time of the acquisition, edX had over 39 million global learners and offered more than 3,000 courses across its partner institutions. edX continues to provide free and paid courses, boot camps, professional certificates, and full undergraduate and graduate degrees.

In 2024 2U completed a Chapter 11 restructuring and now operates as a privately held company.
