Especially with online classes, there are only a few choices other than the traditional ones. Hence, work on developing courses that are new and intriguing and you would surely attract more students.
Most students also assess the financial aid offered by an institute before settling for it. Benefits like scholarships and the opportunity to pay the fee in equal installments rather than in lump-sum, flexibility to do part-time jobs, etc, are examples of some of the aids that can be offered. And though online classes do provide time flexibility, fees is something you can focus on.

The degree that a student works on must help him attain a job. And job placements and internship opportunities provided by the universities help students attain this ambition. Hence, these opportunities act as a major catalyst in promoting the students to an institute.
And some ways which act as the first step in attracting them towards your institute are:

And lastly, make sure that once they come to your institute, you counsel and convince them such that you secure the admission in one go!
