I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

Thanks guys! It wouldn't be possible without the IC, information from this forum (especially the specific exam feedback section!) and unlimited support/sacrifice from my family. In the past 6 weeks, on top of working full-time (40-45 hours/week), I've had to make time to do all these. I study avg. 4 hours on weeknights 9pm-1am, all weekend long to do all the assignments for some courses. I took the CLEP exams during lunch time since there's a CLEP test center nearby the office, and the DSST exams on Saturdays/Sundays.

This is my kind of learner. An inspiration to us all. Check it out people, 9pm to 1am, taking tests on lunch breaks, studying all weekend long. This is how its done.
There are no excuses. Congrats!
