If they go forward with it, I hope they offer some unique concentrations. There are a million EdD programs out there. WGU is supposed to be focused on in-demand degree programs.

indeed also would be curious to see if they require a dissertation or something different like a capstone or project.

In the survey, in ideal price for a year of Doctoral education, I put: USD$ 8,000
For: ideal time of completion for an edD, I entered: 29 to 36 months.

I also priced at $8,000 but for timeline 12-17months to lean toward the VUL/South College timeline.
I also would prefer something like Leadership, Public Administration, and/or Business Concentrations

I'd be intrigued by a concentration in Behavioral Health or Applied Behavior Analysis since they apply in education settings, particularly in challenging settings with kids who have behavior issues, autism, and other neurodevelopmental disorders.
