I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this). Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

That's amazingly cheap, I am astonished how you can get that for so cheap. Can you explain? Is it for a few courses or the entire program?
I assume you must be transferring the limit of graduate courses into the program or something similar right? Is there a PLA process for MBA?

Look forward to the explanation but hedge that they had a great work reimbursement program or academic/sports scholarship leaving the remaining 3k out of pocket expense. Otherwise, Florida just SHOT up the list for the room!

I graduated in May 2016 with an MS in occupational therapy (96 credits including field placements) for $30k. I began in January 2014 and the program went straight through for 7 semesters.

Yes, because the question was "How much did your masters degree cost?" not "How much did you personally have to pay OOP for your masters degree?"
I mean, I don't work and my husband does, so I guess mine will be free since technically I won't be paying for it? I also live rent free, eat for free, live for free...my life doesn't cost me a thin dime!

My job offers tuition reimbursement which pays up to $1533 per class. The 3 credit courses would only cost me about $200 out of pocket and the 4 credit courses $700. My last two special topic courses would be free since they are 2 credit and 1 credit courses and fall under the $1533.

@dfrecore - 'my life doesn't cost me a thin dime' cracked me up! Prior to launching my own business 3.5 years ago, my wife technically did not have a taxable job but ran the house like a next level CEO. Four kids & me makes that more labor than most traditional jobs for sure. That won't stop me from telling her and the kids tonight that their life isn't costing them a thin DIME but it sure is costing me a MINT!

hahah!! Very true.
I've been debating throwing out a question as to how people paid for theirs. As a home schooling stay-at-home parent, I won't have a place of employment or the Military to help finance any further educational goals either.
