WGU is an online University. It is a wonderful way for people, like me, that live in a rural area to obtain an excellent education without having to travel away from home. One must take their entrance assessments very seriously, because these assessments provide insight to one's ability to learn / study independently. Online education is not for everyone, but if you believe you can be successful, you will be. I was! I graduated and obtained the perfect teaching position all in the same week. And, now I am about to begin my masters program. WGU is wonderful!
