That's not bad at all, but up some $300 since my daughter started a couple years ago. The Masters level courses are up $400 over the same time period.
I keep looking at business related certs to strengthen my MBA and to polish the resume with a little Harvard mystique. (been looking at Johns Hopkins as well)

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.

1) You would need a hallway the size of the Louvre to fit Aric Hall's diplomas. We're in the minors, he's in the majors. 
2) Is there such a thing as education hoarding? If so, I think we all may classify. Somebody call "Hoarders".

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.

A little side-tracked, but is it just me, but ever since they refreshed their website, I feel like the font size is too big! My eyes aren't what they once were, but when "I" have to shrink down the page just to read it, you KNOW it's huge. It's gotta be 18 or more.
