In another thread, I discussed how angry I was about having to pay the $100 fee to reapply to WGU.
I've been researching a LOT of masters degree programs (as can be seen from many of my recently started threads). I was even accepted into the Capella Flexpath MBA (but I withdrew my application the day before class was to start).
Even though I was angry, I've finally decided to return to WGU. It's a great school, even though some of the policies are garbage...
rebel100, thanks for your voice of reason in the other thread. You helped put it in perspective for me.

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.

I agree. The closer I got to starting the first course, the more and more I felt like it was a bad idea.

Are you going to do the healthcare management concentration?

I'm seriously considering it, but I haven't decided. It seems like a very good option, and even if I don't get a job in healthcare management after graduation, I would still have an MBA. I'm going to discuss it further with my enrollment adviser tomorrow.

Ugh, I deal with joint commission compliance at work no freaking way I was going to write a course on it for my MBA. I selected the general management and strategy track.

Oh yes, I fully intend to. I'll probably start a thread and update it throughout the program, as rebel100 did.
