This is funny, and I'm thinking that you probably haven't looked at many university websites, because MANY of them are just TERRIBLE!! It's like "hey, you have whole departments of people who are computer-minded, how about you let them take a crack at your awful website and improve it." Seriously bad.
WGU's website is awesome - you can easily see what degrees they have, what courses each degree requires, and how much it will cost to go there. Try finding THAT info on other colleges website - I guarantee you, there will be tons where you can't find a catalog of classes, can't find tuition, etc. without serious searching.
I agree... still, there's something about them that I can't put my finger on. It doesn't help that I haven't found any great reviews of their CS program. A lot of people are like "well, I got the paper, and I was able to do it in less than a year... " Happy to have my mind changed though.
