I have been working on my Bachelor’s in Math Education (5th-12th) from this college since May of last year. As a military spouse who is constantly changing her location, it has been a god-send. They have a high accreditation, it’s a great program, you can obtain certification in most states.
I have a wonderful mentor who helps guide my progress and if I get stuck, I get referred to a professional teacher who can further assist me with that particular subject.

I’m beginning DT on Monday, too. No way could I be in this position with 3 kids and a husband had I needed to attend a traditional ‘bricks-and-mortar’ school.

I’m in my third year with WGU and it has been a positive experience thus far. As a stay at home mom of 3, a traditional college would not have met my needs. Thanks to WGU, I’m looking forward to graduating next year!

Good luck to everyone starting DT on Monday… I start around the 15th. I am a nervous wreck!

I love the video…especially the mom on the skateboard! Nice touch
I am entering my fourth term at WGU, and will be doing my demonstration teaching in the fall. I have loved the flexibility offered by WGU, allowing me to earn my BA, while still being home with my two young kids.

I just graduated from WGU’s BA Mathematics 5-12 program. It was affordable, rigorous, and great preparation for teaching high school level math. It took me two years and I’m REALLY happy I did it!
Unfortunately, this web ad is super corny. Don’t let it dissuade you from checking out WGU’s programs. With their competency-based credit system, you really can make the most of the knowledge you’ve acquired on your own.

I think the video is a great complement to the other media WGU uses to promote the university. I started at WGU in November working on my BS in Business Management. I am happy I made that choice.

Yes, the video is goofball, but I’m very pleased with WGU. I was unsure about online degrees, but love my teaching program. There are pros and cons to online programs, of course. If you are going into teaching GO FOR IT. You won’t get a better education from a traditional program. Excellent. I’ve been in the K-8 program for 2 semesters, with a toddler at home.

I am in my first semester at WGU in the Math Education 5-9 program. I am a foster mom of two girls 6 & 8 at the moment, I work full time, my husband travels with work and I am ver involved in church. I somehow find time to get through my online school work and still make the grades! I would never be able to do this at a traditional school….Give it a try!

I am in the Bachelor of Arts in Social Science (5-12) program, and I absolutely love it. WGU has an excellent competency-based program of studies. Highly recommended and they are accredited by many different accrediting agencies. NCATE accreditation is the most important.

I am in my third term getting my BS in accounting. This ad is cute and corny at the same time. I am so happy that I found WGU. It has given me the opportunity to resume my education in my spare time, what little there is.
January 11th, 2008 at 11:21 pm
Hopefully, the people in the spot are NOT in the Theater Arts program at WGU!
I love WGU and I am in my final few months of my BS in Business Management program. I appreciate that I was able to make use of my previous classes as well as my work experience. This is a great program for the person who is wanting to complete their programs, but maintain their regular life and work.

I’m near wrapping my MBA at WGU. This very flexible program is the only way I would be able to accomplish this.
January 29th, 2008 at 9:28 pm
WGU is making my dreams come true! You will love it too. Yep it’s all about the kids!
This school allows moms the opportunity to still be a great mom and earn a degree.

Great video to encourage anyone to take a degree online
August 25th, 2008 at 1:52 am
great tips and information

That these “online” classes and degrees are being presented with a straight face and are considered an equivalent to actually going to class is shameful. I would not for one minute hire someone with one of these. It is not real.

Good thing that you are not an HR manager cochranexyz. I wonder which accrediting body covers your school? Post that here and then we can talk.
June 15th, 2009 at 6:04 pm
any MSN students here?
June 26th, 2009 at 8:24 am
So would you say you are happy with your decision in WGU? And would you recommend it to others?
June 26th, 2009 at 8:26 am
It’s a year later… Do you still love WGU and would you recommend it to others? I am considering enrolling in WGU and I just want some honest opinion from people who have finished their degrees.
September 14th, 2009 at 5:39 am
It’s not all online they want to talk to you on the phone so much I can’t even get a strait awnser so I can get enrolled and start taking classes on my time.

I am more than half way done with my bachelors in business management. I took 62 credits this year. If you know the material you can test right through. You can take as many credits as you can fit and pass into any 6 month period/semester. Yearly costs $5800. Masters is $3700 per semester/6 months. I will be finishing with a masters from WGU in about 2 1/2 years. A bachelors and masters in about 3 1/2 years. And its accredited as well.

Do not listen to people who are not students. With the exception of necessary live clinicals for in class requirements for certification in teaching degrees, it is ALL online. You do go to a local college and take some of the finals with a proctor. That is just to assure you do not cheat. But they are free for the first 3 attempts, $60 for the 4th attempt. If you live in Utah or Arizona you can get addtional financial aid as that is where the “PHYSICAL” WGU is located.

I’m doing the WGU IT program and I have to say it’s awesome. My employer of over 10,000 pays almost half the tuition, and since 9 of my classes include certifications I get emails from AVPs from work congratulating me on the progress. So it IS accepted.
It IS online, except for the proctored tests. No one would value a degree that is earned with no accountability.
And someone complained about phone calls? I talk to my mentor once every two weeks for 15 minutes get over it.
