Can I apply to any Master's program in WGU when I have my Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, or does it have to be an MBA? I'm interested in the Teacher's program, or maybe IT, but I'm not sure if I want to shoot for an MBA :/

Each WGU graduate college/program have their own pre-reqs/requirements for enrollment. Check the degree page for the particular program you are interested in for specifics. For the IT Management program, they want work experience in the field, for example.

Actually an MBA is redundant because its almost always the same courses you would take in a BSBA program. I know this is funny coming from me when I'm doing just that, but I'm doing it for professional reasons. I would recommend trying a masters in something that interests you or helps you career wise.

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
