Western Governors University - WGU (reviews)

I love the competency-based structure of WGU. I have worked in the technology sector for over 30 years and I appreciate being able to use my practical knowledge to pass WGU courses and fruther my career. Thank you WGU!

The competency based model was huge for me. I could work while studying, instead of waiting for semester schedule , course instructor were helpful via calls and email when i got stuck on specific courses

As someone living in Quebec, I was looking for a degree that won’t cost me an arm and a leg but will also allow me to work in the US. I was starting to get really impatient because I didn’t find what I was looking for. All the US accredited universities costed thousands of dollars. I came across WGU when scrolling through Tiktok. I decided to learn more about it. What attracted my attention was the 6 months model. You pay $4000USD for a 6 months period where you can take as many courses as you can. I am on my way to graduate in May.

WGU is an accredited, affordable online university ideal for self-motivated students in fields like HIM, nursing, IT, and business. Its flexible, self-paced format helps you graduate faster. It’s best for independent learners—not those who prefer live classes. Overall, it’s a great choice for working adults and career-focused learners.
