   MinnesotaGirlRN replied to spearsfm's topic in Western Governors

   I talked to a guy in the IT department last night and he said he has never heard of anyone having any issues. I'm keeping my fingers crossed because I sure am not gonna go out and buy a brand new computer! On a side note, I have to rave about their I...

12. Do any WGU graduates have jobs?
