You can still accelerate through the program - so I don't understand why this would be a deal breaker. Do the other options you'd be looking at offer the ability to accelerate your program, choose your course order - at this price point? What are the other school/programs you're considering? Also, to be clear - this was all a sincere inquiry, so please don't read it any other way.No problem at all with the questioning. I appreciate all of you chiming in.
The issue is that the new Bachelor's came with a new job, with new responsibilities, and new demands. While many of you have spoken about the inability to accelerate ahead (and that is a problem, it's probably why we chose WGU to begin with), my issue is the opposite. Because of the new demands placed on me, I may have to slow down as I'll now have less time, particularly to study graduate level courses. Right now, it would make sense for me to focus on courses that require less time and effort while still allowing me to move forward.
