Graduates of WGU

Updated:   Published

I would really like to hear from any graduates of WGU's RN-BSN program. Specifically, have any of you been accepted to another school's MSN program with a degree from WGU? I am worried about not being accepted with a degree from here.. I have contacted some of the MSN schools in my area but haven't heard back yet with an answer from them.. so I would really appreciate if anyone could share their success or unsuccess with this.. Thanks! ?

I got accepted to a great post-MSN APN program after getting my BSN and MSN from WGU. However, my undergrad GPA is 3.9, I have years of experience in the specialty, and my resume is pretty awesome. The 3.0 GPA thing was my biggest concern about WGU, but you can make it work if the rest of your resume/academic work is above average. I really wish WGU would just stick to pass/fail, and forget the GPA thing entirely.

The night supervisor at one of my jobs got her MSN in nursing leadership from WGU.

Good to know!

I have a BSN from WGU and I have since been accepted to two master programs, one for MSN for advanced practice nurse and the other a MFA program in creative writing. No problems at all.

wow that's great news. I did brick and mortar associated 65 credits in 9 months, then transferred to WGU for moving and graduating now with BSBM, starting master here in October and plan to finish by March while studying LSAT on the side. May I ask what LS you applied to ? I returned to school after my kids were grown, this is moving quickly as I hoped it would but LS will deff put the brakes on...lol.

Was the LSAT as difficult as everyones states or is some fear fed?

You fed me hope with your posting. Thank you.

Sorry for the error, tyoing super fast battery is dying....lol
