Have you had a chance to speak to an enrollment counselor from WGU by any chance? I had questions when I was unsure if the program would be a good fit for me. Speaking to an enrollment counselor made making the decision easier and he was also able to answer all of my questions.

Hi all, in regards to the webcam anyone using a Macbook? I have a Macbook Pro but some people have said that it may not be compatible for the webcam. Just wondering if anyone has any advice/experience with this. Thanks!

Congrats! I'm happy that we were able to get our May 1 start date like we planned :)

Well, looks like I'm cleared for a May 1 start date. I'm going to do the online orientation this week. How's everyone else doing?

I filled out all of the FAFSA, I'm just waiting on WGU to put the financial aid in the student portal so I can accept the offer. By any chance did you receive a loan offer already?

I did my intake interview today and it looks like I'm set for a May 1 start date! I'm just waiting for the financial aid paperwork to come up for me to sign. My enrollment counselor says it could take between 3-8 days for it to show on the WGU portal. I'm hoping this process goes by smoother than the transcript process. Good luck to everyone on finishing up the process!

Wow Commuter I'm so sorry to hear that . It's stressful enough having to do the application process and play the waiting game. You would think they would have said something sooner?

Thank you! I spoke to my enrollment counselor and I'm scheduled to do the intake interview on Thursday. Is there anything specific they ask you or is it just running through the program?

Not sure if it's been asked before in this thread but how long do the transcript evaluations normally take? Luckily, both of mine arrived within the last few days. Though it was late, I'm still happy they arrived.

Congratulations!!! :))))

Well, looks like they received one of my transcripts. My other school handles transcript requests through National Student Clearinghouse. It was mailed out on 3/18/14 and it does not look like they have received it. Anyone familiar with how National Student Clearinghouse works? I may just end up putting another request in. *sigh*. Still crossing my fingers and trying to remain positive! =)

It seems like my chances are getting slim on a May 1 start date. Still no transcripts. It's so frustrating :'(

Congrats! I'm trying to do my immunization records too (also from CA). When I tried to register for ITS it's asking me for a student ID but I don't have one yet. Did you have to ask your enrollment counselor for it? Thanks!

That's so frustrating. The same thing happened to me. I was told up to 48 hours to process. I ordered them on 3/9 but they did not get mailed until 3/18. I followed up with my enrollment counselor who says it doesn't seem like they have received it yet. I'm hoping it gets there and they process it soon because I'm really aiming for a May 1 start date. *fingers crossed*

Waiting is the worst part. I hope everything else goes smoothly for you!
