My Grad School Thoughts - Masters/PHD

[RANSOMSOUL]

Well, it's one in the same if you are deciding between WGU & Patten. The highest grade point you can get at WGU is a 3.0 no matter how great your exam scores are. Even with a negative hit from an exam, to graduate at Patten your need a 3.0 and that would put you right at the same grade point graduation level at WGU. Prior to the update, I thought Patten was a pretty tough gamble, even at the tuition price point but now I think it is definitely worth taking the chance for the right student.

Why can't someone get over 3.0 at WGU?

The program is built on a Pass/Fail structure and Pass= 3.0. Your transcripts only show Pass for the courses - there is no showing of an actual grade.
