Review of Western Governors University

from Bardstown, KY

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

Like most online programs the IT-Database program is very intensive and accelerated. But the program is awesome. I am receiving industry certifications from organizations such as CIW and CompTIA. This is the part that really cinched it for me (that and the inexpensive tuition costs)

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

The resources available to the students is invaluable, and there are so many it is almost overwhelming, but in a good way.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

I had my Associates degree from another school when I decided to look into WGU. Many of my credits transferred and the tuition is so much more inexpensive than most other colleges (my research was done mostly with online programs) Financial Aid is available through WGU.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If you are interested in a Business, Teaching, or IT degree check out the programs with WGU. WGU is based out of Utah, but they have a new campus (opened just last year 2010) in Indiana. Students wanting to start the program must apply by the 15th of the month to start the 1st of the next month.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Great for students wanting to pursue an online education and obtain a teaching, business or IT degree.
