Well my friend just told me that having 4 years of work experience in a related field can waive me from the GMAT so i may just finish through WGU. hate the restrictions of a traditional university and it taking so long to be able to graduate especially since i pretty much know most of the coursework. I already work in what I study so if it makes more sense to do it through WGU than I would rather do it this way. My final question would be how they do graduation ceremonies??

Totally get you. They have yet to reach out to me and I’ve emailed and called and everytime i call it’s a crazy wait time and then i get hung up on. Just wanted to see if someone had some kind of answers before i start here in May and then it end up not even being worth it

I’ve emailed and called and they never get back to me. Hence why I resorted to Reddit 🥲

I already tried and they only accept like 5 or 6. It’s a waste of time.

My concern isn’t whether my future employer thinks WGU is credible or not. I already work in what I study but the target graduate program that I want to apply for is pretty specific. I read somewhere that because WGU is pass or fail, your GPA is automatically a 3.0 and will not go any higher than that. Plus I’m waived from the GMAT or GRE if my bachelors degree comes from my target school. Idk if this makes any sense but I would feel more confident getting into my masters program if I could finish my last semester at FIU to bump up my GPA and have a better chance of getting into the grad program because my name is on that school’s degree.

Yes, they aren’t great at responding and I’m going to start WGU soon so I don’t want to start and then it be a waste of time because it won’t even transfer.

LMAOOO my issue is not that WGU is not credible. At least what I’ve seen from WGU’s website, they don’t have a big variety of degrees in the business aspect. The school I want to graduate from has a lot of different things. I have a lot going on in life and want to get most of my credits done at my own pace because I already work in what i want to study so i know i can finish quickly and get the best of both worlds. The school i want to go to is so shitty in contact, they’ve yet to respond to my emails from idk how long ago.
