I was able to verify that wgu.edu email addresses work just fine for this program.
Pro tip: If you already have a Coursera account and don't want to delete it to create a second one using your school credentials (since you're not allowed to have multiple accounts per their terms of service) all you need to do is change the email address of your account to match your school email address and then submit the address for verification. Presumably, after your account is flagged you can switch the email address back to your original email address, though I haven't tested that yet myself.
I also discovered that if you try to create a second account with a different email without deleting the first account, it automatically links the new login to your main account. So now I can log in with my wgu.edu email or my primary email and it goes to the same account. However, it didn't flag my account for free access until I switched my email address to the school one in my account settings and verified the email address again.

Working on: Debating whether I want to pursue a doctoral program or maybe another master's degree in 2022-23
