Hi to all just wanted to reach out with a few questions I have. I have about 19 classes left to finish my degree my plan is to finish in one term is this possible?
I have not been to school over 30 years. I will be going full time 40 plus hrs a week. I start in Sept 1st.
I pretty terrified about the proctored exams!!!
I just finished my orientation yesterday and have a meeting with my mentor today.
Hi All.
I’ve recently decided to pursue a BS in Business at WGU. I’m wondering if my work experience will aid me in getting classes done quickly.
A little back ground. I have 8 years of professional banking experience. Started as a banker and resigned as an Assistant Vice President/ Bank Officer. I wore many hats at this company. I have HR experience, talent acquisition, business management, Coaching, hiring/ offboarding, community relations, and I currently hold a board position at a recovery center for men and women recently released from prison.
Will this experience help me navigate these courses more easily or am I in for a surprise??
Just looking for some advice/encouragement 😊
Start date is Sept 1st. Any tips, tricks, or things to know about getting BS in Business Management at WGU?? Very nervous and excited. Would love to be prepared 😊
Was searching for something like this and realized no one made a detailed fast-track guide since WGU just removed the capstone project and updated the IT Management degree. Now, there are fewer accepted transfers, which means more courses you have to take directly through WGU.
Even maxing out transfers, you're stuck taking 15 courses during 6 months while enrolled. So I made this for myself and why don't I share it. Hope it helps, are there any other IT management now or future students??
cheers to claude
definitely requested a changed already lol God answered my prayers i was 8.7 i believe and information overload ! I received this !!!! thank you Jesus !! PA ME FOR 500 Alex 😂😂
Hi, I am starting my B.S. in Marketing here and am arriving with 8/32 courses completed, and 75 units remaining (I have my associates from a community college). How long do y'all think I could take to finish, realistically? I work part time and don't really have any other responsibilities (kids, etc)
I keep answering these questions wrong in my studying and can’t seem to really understand. Please explain like I’m 5 so I can pass my OA tonight.
i started wgu business july1 i completed 3 classes in 3 weeks. this fourth got pushed out due to my business, working a full time job, and having 3 kids going back to school and a 8 month old…. last time logged in was friday my mentor reached out to see how i was doing i just logged in to do my coharts videos and i no longer have active courses add need to speak to my mentor!!!!!!! mind you i was active friday AND i have until sept something to finish this class literally makes no sense and this is my last class of my first time which technically if i went slow in have until december to complete..
has this happen to anyone before?
I am 60% done with my degree but won’t finish until late September. I wanted to make it to the Atlanta graduation commencement in October but I won’t be finished in time. California is next but it’s too expensive to travel there so I guess I’ll wait until next year. Has anyone graduated earlier but walked at a later commencement? If so what was your experience? I was going to just take pictures and celebrate in my city but I still feel bad about not walking the stage.
Hello
I am thinking about enrolling in at WGU and pursuing a degree in business management/admin. Anyone that has graduated or is currently in the process of taking classes to graduate in this program I’m looking for advice. I currently come from a healthcare profession. I’m looking for details such as are the classes hard, do you think it’s doable working full-time? Overall, how is your experience and is it overall worth getting the degree? I’m very nervous as you can tell. Typically how long does it take to graduate/ finish classes?
I panicked for absolutely no reason. I saw a lot of questions from the unit test and learning checks. The majority was scenario based but there were some definition based questions that saved me as well. It wasn’t anywhere near as bad as people made it out to be. I did study for well over a month. Going to get a drink because this class had me super stressed. Also the study guide is your absolute best friend!
These are my last two classes and C175 is kicking my butt right now. I want to finish this month so I can relax for two months and start my master in November! Any tips for either class would be helpful PLEASE!
I’m a recent graduate with BSCNE and received this email. The Alumni Coordinator that reached out to me said “Since there are only about 115 BSCNE alumni nationwide, I figured this was a group worth reaching out to directly.” I find that an amazingly low number for this degree and this school, but maybe. 🤷♂️
If you’re a recent graduate and interested in a weekend in SLC, reach out to your Alumni coordinator and BE THE FACE OF WGU!! lol
Hello To The Community!
I just joined Reddit and this community, so I really hope I am on the right page for the WGU BS in Business Management program! If there is a better or more specific subreddit for this degree, please let me know.
I am trying to map out my transfer strategy for 2026 using third-party platforms (like Sophia and Study.com), but I am getting really conflicted information online about what is actually allowed to transfer right now.
I am currently signed up with STUDY.COM but if they are not available there then I will use other options.
Could anyone who recently went through the evaluation process look at my list and tell me which of these are still transferable, and which ones I will definitely have to take directly through WGU?
Here are the 12 courses I am looking at:
D388 — Fundamentals of Spreadsheets and Data Presentations (3 CU)
D081 — Innovative and Strategic Thinking (3 CU)
D353 — Strategic Training and Development (3 CU)
D354 — Talent Acquisition (3 CU)
D253 — Values-Based Leadership (3 CU)
C721 — Change Management (3 CU)
C717 — Business Ethics (3 CU)
D099 — Sales Management (3 CU)
D175 — Consumer Behavior (3 CU)
QGT1 — Business Management Capstone Written Project (4 CU)
QHT1 — Business Management Tasks (3 CU)
D361 — Business Simulation (4 CU)
Thank you all so much for the help and for this community!
So I haven’t looked at the class material but I passed the Pre-assessment how should I go about this?
I graduated with my BS in business management in 08/25. I have yet to find any place of work. Remote or in person. I live in Florida. Does anyone have any recommendations other than Handshake ( full of scams ) for finding jobs this time of year? Ty!
Hey y’all I just wanted to stop by and let you know that you can do this. Don’t give up!! Also, while this was on my mind, I wanted to share more helpful tips.
Before you start your program, go to the WGU website and get familiar with what classes you have to take. Also, do more research about them and see what you can find. I created this account before starting my program and immediately started asking questions about my courses. I also recently joined five FB groups. The names of those groups are: Western Governors University
(WGU) Students, WGU School of Business, WGU School of Business, WGU Master's Human Resource Management Support, and Black at WGU. I have noticed that people are sometimes more willing to answer certain questions about a class in these groups.
