Do not trust everything mentors and advisors tell you My whole educational career got drastically changed because staff at WGU cannot give out consistent information and that affects you and your education. I kept getting inconsistent information when I was about to start my student teaching. It made me miss the deadline and then was asked to take an 8 month term break when I could only take 6 months. Nobody could help, nobody knew the correct information and had to ask others and never got back to me. I was forced to essentially drop out and only get my bachelors in education rather than with my license like I’d like to. My whole goals got ruined thanks to WGU staff. Would either not recommend or tell students to be EXTRA vigilant about the information they’re given.

10/10 Experience - highly recommend WGU The support and encouragement I received from everyone - from my mentor, to course instructors, even to the admissions office!

I love WGU I love WGU! The professors are extremely helpful and available to assist, very quickly. My program mentor was fantastic. I can not say enough good things about her. She is so supportive, caring, encouraging and has an infectious personality. The library assistants were wonderful and the chat feature was awesome. Course chatter was helpful, too. Self-paced worked so well for me and I didn't feel stressed about due dates, constantly.

The Right Place to Take the Next Step WGU is just what working adults need to make a career change or take the next step. Tuition is affordable and courses are flexible. Compared to a traditional university, WGU gets you through the material with less wasted time while giving the benefit of a 26-week semester.

My mentor Michelle Labbe helped me to… My mentor Michelle Labbe helped me to overcome many challenges. And I had many great encounters with my professors. One spent five hours with me to complete some business and personal tax returns.
