## WGU Questionnaire for Potential Student Recruiter
|
|
|
|
- Can I start any time? (i.e. there are no set semesters) Terms starting 1st of
|
|
every month (about 1 month.)
|
|
|
|
- How do transfer credits work with sophia.org and study.com ?
|
|
https://partners.wgu.edu/home (check every month for updates) have transfer
|
|
credits in by the 5th of the month before enrollment (make sure to apply
|
|
beforehand, it's free, no obligations).
|
|
|
|
- I have a bachelors, how can I transfer credits from LMU, Art Center? How long
|
|
does it take for me to find out which credits can transfer? When filling out
|
|
the application, there will be a place for you to request transcripts (mark
|
|
that you want WGU to attempt to grab transcripts). Can take up to 14 days(can
|
|
only be requested during application)
|
|
|
|
Parchment.com if it doesn't work initially can retrieve transcripts and they
|
|
have a partnership with WGU.. can take within 2 to 3 days (5 to have in
|
|
account).
|
|
|
|
- Is there any facilitation in place for internships while I am enrolled? Don't
|
|
offer direct internships (WGU handshake is a network for potential employers).
|
|
Alumni services does offer events (notified via email).
|
|
|
|
- What is your tuition refund policy? Specifically in regards to timing. Flat
|
|
rate tuition (6 months of access to the courses, price is same). Can sign up
|
|
for as many courses as you want (accelerated if desired). Check in with
|
|
financial services. If you complete your final term before 6 months, it is
|
|
possible to get reimbursement based off of how much time is left, but check
|
|
with Financial services to be sure.
|
|
|
|
- What is your graduation rate?
|
|
- Updating April 1st for Computer Science.
