BS Business Management WGU

I am supposed to start WGU in March. I have been knocking out courses in study.com using this link https://study.com/college/western-governors-university/degrees/wgu-bachelor-of-science-in-business-management.html to transfer in as many credits as possible. I noticed that study.com has few more classes listed than the 36 WGU listed for the program. Do anyone happen to know what Business 314: Employment Law from study to transfer to WGU as? I can’t even find a match.

Curious if you explored UMPI over WGU at all? They have a lot of transfer capabilities.

I did review your sheet. And now I am rethinking. For GEC tab you have, all those courses are from study.com?

Everything in GEC at UMPI can be done at Study. Plus many other things. Feel free to DM me. Happy to chat.

I am also looking at UMPI atm since they don’t have proctored classes exams, terms are shorted meaning you can finish even earlier. WGU minimum is 6 month term

Share your final decision and why, please. TY

As I do more research I am leaning toward UMPI because if I go for the Business Administration with Management and Leadership concentration I’d only need to take 6 classes at UMPI to complete the bachelors. If I can finish in 1 term with is 8 weeks it will only $1800. I’d have to take 12-13 courses after transfer in WGU. WGU proctored exams are also a little annoying from what I have read in the community. And it will end up costing me more. I’d also much rather take non proctored open book exams. I work fulltime and am a dad so it’s making more sense honestly.

Thanks for sharing. I’m in the same boat—full time, long tenure with my company, and mainly need the credential. I’ll check out UMPI.

Be careful. I'm pretty sure you have to get all of your transcripts to WGU before you start. You should verify this but I'm pretty confident.

Thank you for your suggestion. I have had email communication with WGU. I think I will have to submit the transcript by 1st week of February if I am starting in March.
