"The Applied Data Science Lab is delivered online to enable students to participate in a flexible yet rigorous continuing education offering to amplify their skills and knowledge. To apply, applicants must complete a profile on their professional background and pass an Admissions Quiz with a minimum score of 75%. These activities should take no more than an hour to complete."

The current application link leads to an interest page. If you had already signed up for WQU's emails on the Applied Data Science Lab, you should have received or soon receive an invitation to apply. (I received mine about an hour ago.)

The quiz is short, and they provide some recommendations on what to review before starting it (algebra, statistics, Python).

You have three months from admission to officially start the Lab.

I haven't yet started, but there is an FAQ page for the Applied Data Science Lab: https://intercom.help/wqu/en/collections...cience-lab

You can also take the Admissions Quiz a second time (7 days after the first attempt) if you fail the first time: https://intercom.help/wqu/en/articles/57...sions-quiz

I would recommend spending a bit of time reviewing everything before taking their admissions assessments. I recall they are pretty hard, I didn't make it in the first time and well, left it as is when they were in applicant status for DEAC accreditation... I may try them later though, since they recently have DEAC.

Hey, I've registered multiple times on the interest page over the past few weeks but never gotten any email from them, not even an acknowledgement. How soon did you get a reply after registering?

I'd registered a few weeks before the post.
