I was very close to enrolling in that program and I even bought the books necessary for most of the certifications required. I studied and passed Network+ and then the school changed to requiring the CCNA exam. So I bought those books and read a few and even have the Boson network simulator that allows one to configure Cisco routers and switches in a virtual lab environment.
So you can start studying now for the CCNA and that will help you to finish in 6 months.
I'm actually trying to finish CCNA in the next few days. With WGU you can have the classes "cleared" IE passed if you already hold the cert when you enroll. Only those classes that end in taking the certification exam. They recently changed the program to go with CCENT instead of CCNA (they said it fit better with the intended goal of the degree, a little less network tech), but of course CCENT is half of CCNA so they'll accept either.
