A couple questions about WGU

[sharsharky]

When I did your degree plan, you wanted a BALS.  Unfortunately, WGU doesn't have BALS degrees.  You have the option of a BSBA, IT, Nursing, or Teaching degree.

If you wanted to switch to a different degree, then you could.  But much of your credits will be lost because they only have about 25-30% of the degree as Gen Ed's, which you have a lot of.  And, it would not be better to get the AA unless you are like 1 step away from getting one at your local CC or something.  Otherwise, you're taking a long expensive road to get through a pretty short and inexpensive area.  It's not worth it.

Another option is the Northern Arizona University's Personalized Learning program.  It's competency-based and has a BSLA, allows 90cr of transfer, and accepts ACE (max of 64cr combined of ACE and CC's; the remaining 26cr could come from 4yr schools).  Their cost is $3,000/6-mo term, and they take Financial Aid.  https://nau.edu/online/bs-liberal-arts-pl/

Thank you so much for telling me about NAU! I had never heard of this program before, but it seems like it could be a really great option for me. My only hesitation is that, after some searching, I haven't found many first hand experiences from students that went through this program. I wonder how it's difficulty level stacks up to other options. I'm really hoping to complete courses quickly so that I can be all done in just 1 term. Thanks again!
