WGU to launch new accelerated bachelors to masters degree

From what I'm reading elsewhere many people are disappointed that they can't accelerate and are stuck paying for at least 2 terms - 1 undergrad and 1 grad. Seems like they thought it would be a true BS/MS program where both degrees are completed at the end and they could do both in 1 term.

WGU is a nonprofit. They are charging near what it costs them to deliver the degree programs. 

I'm not sure what you mean by "WGU wants their $$$ from the students."

Making it easier for students to get a master's degree in one term isn't WGU taking more dollars from students.
