Considering a Nursing or Healthcare Degree? Here’s How WGU is Different
- Cost-Smart. At WGU, your tuition is charged per six-month term, not per course credit, and covers the cost of as many courses as you can complete in that time.
- Accredited. Our nursing programs are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) so you can feel confident knowing your earning career-relevant credentials.
- Supportive. From day one, you’ll be matched with a Program Mentor who has experience in your specific subject area and will guide you through your degree.
- Flexible. With 24/7 access to our online programs, you can complete coursework and take tests any time, day or night.
*If you’re applying to the RN-BSN or an MSN program, you must have an active unencumbered RN license to meet admissions criteria.
The baccalaureate degree program in nursing, master's degree program in nursing, and post-graduate APRN certificate program at WGU are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (http://www.ccneaccreditation.org).
