My son took intro to philosophy and WGU put that in the humanities requirement. It's a totally different course than a philosophy course focused on logic. I took Logic in college and by the last day to withdraw we were down to 9 students. At the midterm, every single student failed, so we thought we were home free - went to class the next class day and the prof told us to put our books under our desks and handed our exams back to us to have another go at it. It was one proof which had to be completed in a certain number of lines. I was the only one who got it on the second try. 8 people hated me from that day on.
Anyway - intro to philosophy is a very different course than anything related to logic and critical thinking, so it's unlikely it would fill that spot. My son took a logic course via Coursera a year or two ago and it was fantastic - I highly recommend it to everyone.
