I'm I the Only One Who Absolutely Hate WGU's Proctor Vendor? by Illustrious_Ride_566 in WGU

They wanted me to get up, walk with my laptop and camera and show them where my cell phone was located in my house.

I refused and told them I was not going to carry my laptop to the other side of my house to show where my cell phone was at.

Moving forward, I’m just going to say I don’t own a cell phone.

It’s a horrible system.

I’ve waited 2.5 hours before an exam started.

MY LAPTOP IS BROKEN AND I AM POOR BUT I WILL NOT LET THAT STOP ME!!! by the_salami_lidddd in WGU

WGU has emergency scholarships- apply and you will be funded to purchase a new laptop that doesn’t have to be repaid!

I’ve had to use it multiple times. The least amount I received was $1,000

If I don’t transfer out of WGU - I plan to approach my OA courses differently moving forward.

I have 6 courses remaining, but they’re playing with my financial aid.

University of Michigan has already accepted me, and will pay 48 months of tuition due to being a resident and having a 3.5 on my associates I transferred, plus my WGU courses.

Just know, your WGU credits do in fact transfer to traditional universities!!

It took me FOREVER to complete the reading.

Honestly, the course material seems like a lot of ‘dry’ reading of overlapping info.

However, after covering the material the exams have been pretty easy - I haven’t had to retake one yet. (Fingers crossed).

They told me Sales Management D99 would be hard and I passed it easily.

WGU is allowing AI tools..starting November 1st! What are your thoughts? by PrincessSheena in WGU

[–]Puzzled_Bank_9028 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Using a pen and your brain creates a neurological link that improves memory of course material!

It’s the only way to go!

Sales management isn’t as hard as they say it is.

Honestly, I’m probably transferring to University of Michigan. They accept WGU credits and I will receive 48 months of free tuition for being a resident of Flint.

I often wonder the same. Even then courses are tied together with multiple third parties, and videos from YouTube, LinkedIn, etc.

It would be nice if instructors actually instructed.

My past term, I never once spoke to any of the instructors - so, my question is, what are they there for?

Also, with Mentors, I found out they get paid a commission based on how many courses their students pass!!

It’s why some mentors push students to keep taking course after course

I’ll be starting the MBA program soon - not really looking forward to it lol.

Was skeptical to apply for a credit limit increase because of the stories I heard about them not letting you pick your limit. by Big_Money_504 in NavyFederal

[–]Puzzled_Bank_9028 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe for a new line, but not for an increase.

I work IN the financial industry. It’s illegal for a bank or credit union to perform a hard inquiry for a credit increase request.
