WGU Layoffs

3. International Students: why should they accept international students? It is not a requirement to accept international students, this is an issue that is being talked about on all campuses these days because of the processing and red tape that has increased throughout the years. It can be a nightmare to onboard international students at times, people have no idea.

If you are an American citizen with an American HS diploma/GED (or even a US Bachelor's, in the case of students who want a grad degree) who just happens to be living abroad because that's where your spouse/family/work is, it's a bit silly that WGU doesn't allow you to attend. Other schools have no issues with admitting students who live internationally.

I'm not saying that WGU needs to deal with visas. There are other schools that allow students outside of the US but make it very clear that they won't deal with visas. All I'm saying is that at least allow American citizens, regardless of physical location, to attend.
