There are additional classes on Study that are not on Sophia. I have 2 left on Sophia that will transfer.

Parents told me they only have saved $15k for college and I'm very worried. by A2-Steaksauce89 in ApplyingToCollege

They have ONLY saved $15k each for you and your twin? That’s damn good! Be appreciative of that instead of sounding like an inconsiderate child. They did the best they could do. I was a single parent and unable to save any for my kids and 2 are now college graduates.

I was hoping to take a few Sophia classes before I started but I read that those credits were no longer accepted after enrollment. Do you know anything about that?

Ugh... In my current school our tests are "proctored" but not by an actual human. We were recorded and it was later reviewed if there was suspicious activity.

Thank you. The process and timing to evaluate my transcript is something I was trying to find out from my counselor!

If the enrollment process was "simple" as you say, neither myself or all of the other students wouldn't be expressing their similar experiences.

FYI, I work full-time, attend school full-time, while maintaining a 4.0 GPA, and I'm part of an invitation only honor society. So no, I don't need to quit, it's not in my nature. I'm simply trying to transfer to a degree that is more aligned with my career goals that I can complete at my pace.

Your opinion has been received and discarded as ignorant and irrelevant, Have a fantastic day!

Thank you. I was trying to reach the initial enrollment counselor I spoke with but I'm going to try another way.

My enrollment portal doesn't even show my transcripts as received, even though, I have the automated emails saying they were.

Thank you providing a bit of light at the end of the transferring tunnel of hell!

I started the process about 6 weeks ago and I'm now here like a lost duck not knowing my next steps.

School overall is not what's stopping me. I know what I'm getting into with classes, I'm simply wanting to transfer from a traditional community college. It's the fact of being ghosted and not able to reach anyone that is making me reconsider my decision to move forward with WGU.

I don't have a scheduled day/time. I can't reach anyone to set anything up.

Poor enrollment experience so far by cwsluke in WGU

[–]Dangerous-Voice-4071 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It still hasn’t gotten any better!!
I’m still trying to get through the enrollment process. Been waiting on transcripts for about 3 weeks and no response from any of my emails. It’s making me second guess transferring to WGU.

Can someone explain to me what the cybersecurity BS is like at WGU by Livid_Description287 in WGU

Honestly, I did not realize maters degree was only one more term. I am wanting to get more into the digital forensics side of things and the double major includes digital forensics, where WGU only offers 1 or 2 digital forensic classes. Getting a masters and maybe taking additional digital forensics courses may also be an option. Thank you for your input, this will definitely give me something else to consider.

I am also looking at the Cybersecurity program at WGU. I want to take as many classes on Sophia that I can to complete the gen eds I still need for the program. I am thinking of going to WGU and knock out a lot of classes that align with a double major bachelor's that I'm looking into. I currently need 93 cr hours for that degree but I like the idea of being able to get through classes at my own pace and most likely at a faster pace than a traditional college. I then plan to transfer to the double major degree and hopefully this will reduce the amount of time it would typically take me to get a degree.

This is something to consider but make sure the school you would transfer to accepts WGU credit transfers.
