I just graduated from WGU with a BS, but I'm considering a return in the next year or so for their MBA in IT management. There are only three courses in that degree that can be satisfied via transfer credit, so I'm wondering...
Does anyone know of any free/cheap graduate-level credit courses that might transfer in for...
- organizational behavior leadership
- business ethics (or ethical leadership)
- project management
I figure the answer is "no" for all of these, but I've been looking and thought I'd ask. (My best hope was ASU Thunderbird's free program, but it doesn't look like any of those will do.)

A PMP or CAPM certification
can fulfill the project management course, and could be a good thing to have anyway.

Now that they are RA, you might be able to take those at U of People as an MBA student and transfer those to WGU

Basically, I'm a bit confused on why you need to transfer any classes to WGU. I would review the MBA transfer classes available on their webpage and see which providers or colleges/universities can transfer classes over. Otherwise, I highly recommend completing all the MBA related classes at WGU for the learning experience and knowledge, (without doing any transfers). It's CBE, people have completed the entire set of classes in one term of 6 months or less.

Probably bc I wish I'd transferred more in for my BS. I don't expect much, if anything, for a graduate degree, but wanted to explore any known options available anyway.
