In fact, it's quite the opposite (e.g. Harvard Extension undergrad/grad degrees).
Harvard's ALM-IT seems to bend over backwards to make an Ivy League education affordable to anyone (please show me anywhere else where you can get an Ivy League education for under $20k - I would love to be mistaken in this regard). But let me clarify, you do have to have put the time and effort in. I average 10-15 hours a week with my Harvard ALM-IT classes and while it's hard - it's also easily within reach of anyone who wants one bad enough.
I will concur that Harvard is NOT 100% online. For their masters degree one has to do 1 class via summer session in-residence.
My point being, if you want Ivy League - it's there. It's not easy - but what worth-while in life is easy?
Just my 2 cents...
