New member, a few questions.
#1
I found this forum while searching for some information regarding the transferability/recognition of certain online degrees.

Having realized very quickly that a traditional B&M school wasn't for me, I dropped out of a small university and enrolled at WGU. After transferring in roughly 20 credits nearly 4 semesters later, I'm very close to obtaining my B.S. in IT with a Security emphasis. My goal is to move on to their M.S. degree IS/IA and find a B&M for an MBA following completion of the M.S.

My question is in regards to be able to qualify for acceptance for a graduate degree. Based on research, it doesn't look like WGU will provide a transcript with a GPA. It's a lofty goal, but I'd like to see if I could qualify/be accepted at MIT for their MBA in Global Leadership and Innovation. It's going to require some hard work, but I think that my professional experience and a few other factors could help my case. Has anyone heard of what schools like this will do if the undergraduate or graduate transcripts do not provide a GPA when there is a requirement for this type of information?

Regards,

~MSP

I can tell you there are certainly good schools that will let you into their programs with a WGU undergrad.

Rather or not MIT is a possibility is likely unknown. Invent a wildly popular app and rock the GRE and your chances likely increase significantly.

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.
