Very interesting. I am surprised they didn't have this already. Is there a public link? This link requires a log in.

This new degree isn't on the website yet so I don't think there's any public info just yet. This may be the launch of it. This is from a workshop they're holding for enrolled students later in May.

thank you, looking forward to any updates on this topic.

Since it launched November 1st, it's not likely. The first year or so of several of WGU's degrees are a bit rough and are often changed based on student, CI, and Evaluator feedback.

True, but four of these courses overlap with the MSML, and a slightly different set of four overlap with the MBA. So five old courses, and all are known to be accelerable. Makes me think this program might not have as many of the new-degree pains WGU is well known for.
