Alex, I just spoke with wgu on 8/29 and they're accepting 75% on this program.

Is a bachelor of science harder to complete than a bachelor of art in psychology? Are all the questions multiple choice?

Some classes are a multiple choice test, some are a paper.

Do you have an idea of how graduate programs when they see WGU bachelors ? Not sure if you heard from people ? How that works? Is that even possible to get accept to notable programs ?
@alexsheppe8 ай бұрын
I was accepted into Georgia Tech’s Computer Science which has a 25% acceptance rate. WGU can get you into any top grad school. Maybe not ivy league, but anything else.
@AyoCriss8 ай бұрын
Thank you for your response.As you stated it would pretty much require masters degree since a bachelors in this is not much. So I’m not sure how it would be looked upon by schools when it came to applying due to it being a P/F university

Are they only accepting 45 total transfer credits from all sources, or will they accept more credits from other colleges as well? I have almost a full bachelor's in psychology from a different university. I always regretted not finishing it.

Can we start this degree without any credits? I want to become a therapist.
@alexsheppe8 ай бұрын
If you don’t have any college credits, WGU might deny you unless you have a very high High School GPA. They did it to me many years ago. Basically, go complete 9-12 credits from Study.com or Sophia and you’ll 100% get accepted.

@@alexsheppe I work at Amazon and they offer WGU as a career choice and pay up to 5k a semester. So I'm trying to take advantage of what they are offering and this is exactly something I would want to do to fulfill my goal. I've never been to college so I'm literally at square one. I do have my HS diploma. I have a 2.35 tho and the requirement for this program is 2.5 (i’m literally right there.) and are you saying compete 9-12 HS credits? Idk where to start with this. And I will for sure be accepted? Thanks.
@alexsheppe8 ай бұрын
@anthonyh6992 you’ll be for sure accepted if you complete around 12 credits on study.com. They aren’t high school credits, they are called ace credits which will be accepted as college credits.

In my job searches, most (if not all) schools require a master's in school counseling, social work (like case manager) may be an option. But the only counseling jobs I can find that allow only a bachelor's is addiction counseling.

Not sure exactly how the Psychology degree works as it’s really new… but absolute infinite time morning wake up work on school 13-14 hours and go to sleep? I mean… should be able to do it in 6 months.
