Hi everyone! I’m getting ready to start the B.S. Business Management program at WGU on June 1st, and I’m looking for some last-minute advice from current students, alumni, or anyone recently graduated from the program.

I only have 15 courses left to complete my degree (I attached my remaining classes), and I wanted to ask:

- How were these classes for you overall?
- Which classes were the easiest or most difficult?
- Were the proctored exam classes hard? I’m especially nervous about those two classes.
- For graduates, how long did it take you to finish your remaining courses?
- Do you think it’s realistic to accelerate and finish 15 courses quickly?

A little about me: I’m currently a child care teacher and hoping to switch careers with this degree. If anyone has successfully transitioned into a new career field with this degree, I would love to hear your experience as well.

Also, if you have any tips, study advice, acceleration strategies, or words of encouragement, please feel free to share. I’m honestly super nervous but also excited to start this next chapter. Thank you so much in advance!

I'm so elated to see this !!!

Hello! Can anyone tell me which classes are OAs and PAs?
Thanks 😊

Crazy push but finished with 15 weeks still left in the term. Applying for graduation as soon as possible and so glad to be done with this. Finishing school has been a long time coming for me haha.

Hi. I started 4/1/26 with just a couple transfer credits. I have accelerated more than I imagined and have 8 courses left. If I stay on track, I expect to be done before June possibly. I am planning to take the MBA asap. I have been told that I can't start it until October 1 - -after this current semester - even though I will be done so early and am a cash paying student. I am worried about losing momentum! Has anyone else been in a similar situation? TY.

This was definitely the least confident I’ve felt about a class throughout the whole program. Crammed the info in about 2 days. Didn’t read the text at all which probably would’ve helped me out a little. Watched all the recorded cohorts and used another members study guide and just read it alongside the videos. OA is definitely gonna be harder than the PA if you don’t actually understand the concepts. Memorizing definitions is not gonna help you.
Glad I got this out of the way first try. On to C722, D333, and Capstone and then I’m finally done!

How long would you guys think this will take till I finish?

Being honest, is there a possibility that I can complete these last 5 courses by July 1st? I have to meet a deadline to apply for another program by July 11th.

I’m waiting for my final classes to be graded at Sophia and will be enrolling at WGU for a BSSCOM. For anyone who has taken these classes, any tips or advice you can give? Anything is appreciated

Im currently in a dilemma. I know that i can pass this class, since i feel that im close, but part of me also feels demoralized considering the amount of course material to take in. Ive done the module quizzes, and seen most of the crash course videos but im always falling short. to those whove had to retake the oa for this class, what di you all do differently to pass.

p.s. i prepared my own study guide for the class using the course material.
