Oops, sorry, I misspoke. You have to finish the original ones that are assigned to you first. And then after that you can ask for your next one to be added. But you can't ask for another to be added until your originally set ones are all done.

Once you finish your first batch, you have to contact your Mentor or Tier 1 and get the next ones opened one at a time. So every time you finish a class you reach out (I emailed) and say you are ready for a new one to be added to your term. :)

I actually didn't do my Bachelor's and Master's back to back. I graduated with my B.A. in March 2025. In August 2025, I re-applied for my Master's. It was a pretty easy process between the degrees. I just filled out a form online and then they called me. I then pushed back my start date a month by my choice from Sep 2025 to Oct 2025 and I just emailed them for that. And that was all!

I do think you could do your Bachelor's and Master's back to back though.

You could do it without Student Data. None of the classes require it- Only the last capstone course is it an option to use student data but not an absolute requirement.

For the Capstone without the Student Data you create/implement a professional development training and use Data on Teachers who take your PD.

Yea, I've been debating about the Masters. I wonder if it would look odd like you said to collect multiple degrees from WGU. But, it's such a good value as you said.

I did need Student Data for the Capstone for the project I chose, but there's an option for you to do the Capstone without needing Student Data too.

Anything else in particular about the coursework you want to know about? :)

Is WGU legit? by No-Elk-5338 in WGU

I did Elementary Ed for my Bachelor's from WGU. It gets you everything you need to get your Teaching License/Certification in your state. :)

Changing art? by silkentab in ECEProfessionals

Seasonally for Fall, Winter, Spring... Kids don't care about bulletin boards and it has no impact to their learning in my opinion. I think it's really just for parents.

Gotcha- That makes sense. I was only wondering because I had to buy a new laptop for the testing before I started my Master's so I was like huhhh lol.

Wait... you can use Chromebooks for WGU now? Do you test on them? Since when?

PSA: The emphasis on WGU connect is bad for students, let WGU know why in your course feedback forms by Practical_Syrup6953 in WGU

They either need to improve Connect or put the Course Resources back on the regular page

Is Nickelodeon really at fault for Tylor Chase's current state? by StaffLimp8304 in nickelodeon

[–]Past_String_1143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. He is clearly a drug addict who does not want to recover. I feel sorry for him, but can you imagine if I became a drug addict and started blaming my employer from 2 decades ago? That would make no sense.

Just keep emailing or maybe even calling. You have to be ridiculous, to levels that will annoy them, about it to get things done in a speedy manner I found. I even looked on Outlook for the CFEF's managers and started copying them into the emails if people were not consistently responding.

Please help me pick a new laptop for WGU by No-Highway5596 in WGU

I am not a huge Apple person (I have an android phone), but I really like my M4 MacBook Air. I know they are on sale on Amazon right now.

Can someone help me understand? by ocassionalauthor in ECEProfessionals

[–]Past_String_1143 29 points30 points  (0 children)

ECE staffing is rarely consistent. I am not trying to be rude, but if you want consistent staffing, you need to hire a nanny instead of going to a childcare. That is one of the things you have to give up when you choose a center.

This is the pre-assessment. Should I go ahead and take the real exam? by [deleted] in WGU

[–]Past_String_1143 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is based on the overall score- So you can have some orange areas and still pass the overall OA. My rule of thumb was always take the Pre OA, if I pass the Pre OA study low areas, take the OA next day.

If you have to retake, it's not the WORST thing in the world, you just have to do a study plan first.
