"WGU was the answer to a prayer that I was afraid to give a voice to. I have been trying to finish my bachelor's degree for 20 years now. I graduated high school in 2005 and thought within four years I would be done. I was not. I experienced so many setbacks due to financial issues, to grief and depression, to just not thinking I was good enough to finish college. "That was until I discovered WGU and even then, I was skeptical. I'm grateful that WGU breathed life into a dream that I thought just wasn't possible. Not only am I graduating (B.S. Business Administration, Information Technology Management) but I'm also looking at getting two master's degrees from WGU. Thank you for this amazing opportunity. Delayed is not denied!"
