Hello - I am looking for former or current WGU students that could answer multiple questions about WGU. I am trying to figure out if they would fit my needs or not. Please reply to this thread or send private message. Thanks in advance!
I called them to get some info a few years back; they are very cryptic in what they will tell you over the phone. It was like pulling teeth to get info about their structure. I came across a few others who commented about them not telling you very much on the web, they were saying the same thing I experienced. I hear they are a great school, but you find no info about them from the web. I thought it was odd, as student’s maybe you can shed some light as to why they don't hand out much information about their class structure, set up, length, etc. Now mind you that was a few years ago.
They've gotten a lot better about explaining what they do and how over time. The web site is also much more informative than in the past. I expect this will improve as they grow, especially given their new exposure in terms of the WGU Indiana program. One growth area remaining for WGU in this regard-- improve the experience with the enrollment counselors. I hear too many stories of prospective students not getting information, not getting return phone calls, etc.
