For what its worth I did a bunch of study.com classes (over the course of 6-7 months) and transferred them into WGU and was able to easily finish the remaining 30 credits in 3 or so months. Whole thing cost a little under 5K and could be done in even less time depending on dedication and prior knowledge. When debating this myself the only reason I didn't go excelsior was the upper level class requirement and the degree conferral dates aren't a fast. (Had my WGU diploma in hand a week after passing the capstone)
Thanks for the feedback. I should have my assessment back from WGU any day now on which credits they will accept. Time is the biggest factor for me. I receive up to 5k per year towards any type of education from the company I work for, so I am willing to pay more if I can complete it quicker as long as it is an accredited degree. I do want to move on to pursue an MBA.
Did you have any credits when you started with study.com? I see that WGU has it mapped out pretty clearly on their partners page how it can be done, did you work with or let WGU know this was the path you were going to take beforehand?
