WGU transcript evaluation appeal

Nursing Students Western Governors

Updated:   Published

I am supposed to be starting the RN-BSN program on June 1st but when they evaluated my transcripts they told me that my H&P classes and my Microbiology classes were not transferrable because they could not see a lab component on the transcript. The thing is that my community college did not separate the credits on my transcript, and instead just gave a 4 credit hour for it, when it should actually be 3 for the lecture and 1 credit for the lab. Anyhow I contacted the school and they could only provide my with the class schedule I took showing that I was enrolled in the lab and that the class has a lab requirement that must be met, but they were not able to provide me with any syllabi for the classes. Do you thing this will be enough prove to them that the classes included the lab? Any one with a similar experience? I am very discourage now, if they don't take those classes it mean I would have to take 10 pre reqs :***: there is no way I will do that! Thank you for reading, any advise or info will be greatly appreciated.

My transcript eval did not give me credit for General A & P and the lab. My school did not give us separate grades for the class & Lab. The classes were 4 credits each. How do I go about appealing? Is there a specific form that I fill out? I sent a message to my enrollment counselor. I included a link to the course descriptions from the school website. I also am waiting for an email from my A & P instructor to see if she can email me the copy of the syllabi from both A & P classes. Thanks for your help!

I had the exact problem but I just included a copy of the course catalog for the year I took the courses. I scanned in the page with my classes and mailed them to my adviser.

I just got the email back that my appeal has been granted. Very happy!
