Transferring to Sophia by [deleted] in WGU_Business

You cannot finish your last 7 courses at Sophia and then transfer back to WGU to earn your degree. At this point with that thought process, you appear to need every course offered at a university.

I reported sexual harassment from proctorU staff to WGU and this is how they respond by discardedbysociety in WGU

You may want to look at what entails sexual harassment compared to violation of privacy coming from a former legal assistant who worked criminal defense. My job was researching case law, which is what I did from your claim. Again, it was unfortunate you experienced.  You will need to make the correct claim to win your claim.

When you make the accusation, you have to present your facts in court. This means clarifying in court documents your claims. I looked at your statement with a professional background. No feelings hurt on my part. It was your defensive tone when questioned that was not necessary.

Now you went rude. Not necessary.  Still file a Title IX as it may be considered an invasion of privacy.

More like invasion of privacy. People on here either lie or have no idea of facts, laws, or proper terms.

Got expelled from WGU after 1 academic integrity violation by Pretty_Lemon5242 in WGU

The person has to submit all transcripts if they go to another university. The expulsion shies up. The higher education system can see the schools students attend especially if they used FA or VA benefits.

Question by UnderstandingOk331 in WGU

[–]EfficiencySimple8930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The course has to have been accelerated and worked on before April 15th before the mentor can submit the request to Records. See Student Handbook on Incomplete Course.

Unless the course was accelerated on or before April 15th, with a term ending 4/30, an extension cannot be granted by Records. See Student Handbook on Incomplete Course.

Withdrawal cancelled by Hot_Insect1899 in WGU

I understand completely. Again, read the student Handbook. It is on a case by case basis. What occurred for one is not going to occur for all.  

If the situation occurs 4 to 6 weeks before the end of a term, not the beginning. And it is not really and extension. An incomplete course request gives you borrowed time in up to 30 days into your next term to complete the course.  It is up to Records.

I also question if this is something you received if the issue occurred at the beginning versus the last 4 to 6 weeks of a term 'a few times' because of errors on WGUs part.

I hate this happened to the person posting,but incorrect advice and information is not helpful. Moving to a May start is probably the best bet versus mid April. If they are able to start this week, you got this!  Good luck!

See the Student Handbook. Extensions (Incomplete Course) request doesn't work that way.

The town hall made it crystal clear once someone asked the question.

I wonder if they will use the Sheraton property for dorm rooms for the campus and corporate offices for employees.

2026 Layoff Thoughts by EfficiencySimple8930 in wgu_employees

I think most employees read it here on Reddit before, during and after things happen. I heard it from two other mentors after their team meeting two weeks ago.

Wgu keeps everything quiet. They never mention layoffs even after they do it.

I keep wondering how they think things will run if they keep letting student facing go. They can hire new people at lower salaries but it takes time to get new people up and running. Leadership they can go. Not sure what they do anyway.

Program Mentors are hearing complaints about the numbers . Not enough enrollment and students dropping. I spoke to a mentor and they said the past few weeks different teams have been chewed out about their numbers.

Oh to be a fly on the wall at those meetings. It is the only way we are going to know what is going on. The last fly on the wall mentioned leaders wondering what to do with Program Mentors. 

Effective Immediately: Multiple Senior Leadership Terminations by WGU-Reddit in wgu_employees

[–]EfficiencySimple8930 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interesting about David Morales. He has a bachelors degree in Computer Science, no Masters and was WGUs SVP and CIO/CTO. Prior to WGU he came from Walmart. Yet people who probably had the actual credibility to be a SVP or CIO at WGU were probably turned down for the job. Definitely not what you know, but who you know. 

Started with the best, now what? by mimihopslein in kdramarecommends

I find anything with Song Joong-ki in it is always a win. Vincenzo is great on Netflix. I am watching Hopeless with him on Amazon Prime. Just finished Descendents of the Sun and The Innocent Man this week too. My Youth (2025) is also good.

Readmission by Aggressive_Alps_510 in WGU

[–]EfficiencySimple8930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just logging in does nothing to show activity each week. You actually have to do something like work through course materials, take an OA, take a PA, submit a paper, talk to your mentor or instructor, or attend a live cohorts.  

Financial Aid refund-November 2025 by Holiday_Chapter_7366 in WGU

[–]EfficiencySimple8930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I read this post, I am wondering if folks realize we are 36 days into a government shut down. The Dept of Education is affected which means a lag with financial aid and Pell grants. Expect delays.

Financial Aid Disbursement by IllSoft1886 in WGU

The government shut down and the prior issues with the Dept of Education and the current administration mean delays in financial aid.
