WGU Admission

[Cafichter]

I am currently interest in enrolling at WGU for my RN-BSN; I noticed in their course study that have a lot of over lapping classes that I have already taken at my community college, I am wondering if anyone knows if I will have to retake these or if they will be credited.

I received generous credit for the majority of the coursework I had already completed. Nutrition is the only course WGU seems to make everyone take regardless of whether they've taken nutrition in the past.

However, this makes sense: most people completed lower division nutrition courses, whereas we all need a certain percentage of upper division credits to earn a bachelors degree.

In addition, any statistics coursework you hope to transfer in must be less than five years old.

Thank you, so from what I am understanding; after I have my RN license and I transfer from my community college the only classes I should have left to take are around 24 CUs

Incoming students with a complete liberal arts background and an RN will typically clear upon transfer all assessments EXCEPT:
