Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie on the forum. I want to thank all of you for your helpful posts while I was researching my degree options.
I graduated from WGU in 3 months with a Bachelor of Science in healthcare. I live outside of the USA.
Some things to consider when you get a bachelor's degree from WGU:
1. They use CUs (competence units) instead of credits. The transcripts thoroughly explain the competence degree, but I'm not sure it will go well for a master's application. My suggestion to WGU would be to make it 120 CUs instead of 91, as questions could arise.
2. Some study material is not worked on: they give you a book to read from page x to page y. I usually used chatGPT to familiarize myself with the concepts for the tests.
3. Overall, including the tempting price for the accredited degree, it was a pleasant experience. My mentor is fantastic; no issues with proctors, and most courses are good and valuable.
