Hear WGU Grads Tell Their Back to School Stories
“There's a few things that WGU offers that other programs don't, and one is the competency-based format. The mastery. To make sure that you learn the skills before you move on to something else. Traditional schools don't offer that. You simply go to class and you get what they're working on that week and if you don't get it, too bad, we're all moving on. Many key concepts are lost with that.”
