"WGU was a blessing for me. I had been going to school for 4 years already when I switched to WGU. Instead of having to go to school part time and only complete a few courses a year, I was able to complete my work at my own pace. I transferred in 45 credits to WGU, and in a year completed about 70 more. I don't know if I ever would have finished my degree without WGU. On top of all that, the faculty were amazing, my mentor was always looking out for me, and I learned a ton.”
