[WGU] Should I Just Go Ahead

[bluebooger]

2-3 years is how long you are "supposed" to spend at WGU. The issue is that's not as affordable as other options could be.

Yes, and there's really no point in doing so unless you're lazy and don't want to do the research into CLEP, StraighterLine, etc. The only way I can see one doing WGU straight thru would be to take advantage of scholarships/grants.

people can easily knock out WGU courses in a couple of days or even fewer                  
saw a post on WGU's reddit where somebody did the Natural Science lab by comparing how long it took to boil water with salt vs how long it took to boil without                    
I'm not sure any CLEP facilities are open at the moment, but I'm sure you could knock out WGU's American History faster than it would take to commute to the nearest CLEP testing center and complete a CLEP American History 

there are many dedicated posters on reddit who complete a degree in year, some even in one 6 month term
