Advice on WGU

Keep in mind that some of those courses cannot be transferred in. You can check your transfer guide to identify those courses.

Once you figure out the courses you can transfer, you will find that the majority of those courses can be found at Study.com, some of them at StraighterLine, and I think a couple are available via Sophia (which is free right now).

That said, you won't necessarily be able to complete those courses any faster via SDC, SL, or Sophia, since you can accelerate pretty easily at WGU if you have the time and background to support it. However, you can begin now, get them done more cheaply, and on your own schedule. Also keep in mind that once you start working through these courses, if you're not ready to begin at WGU, you can also delay your start date until you are ready... you just need to make sure your enrollment counselor is up to speed.

Also remember that once your term begins you won't be able to transfer in any more courses. Any courses taken outside of the school have to be completed, on a transcript, and evaluated by WGU before the beginning of your term in order to be considered.
Working on: Debating whether I want to pursue a doctoral program or maybe another master's degree in 2022-23
