I'm currently applying for a position with the Federal Government, department of Interior.
I know WGU is regionally credited but will the they give me credit for my degree or say no points for you (during the hiring process)?
Thanks for the info.

This information is available on the website of the U.S. Department of Education located at http://www.ed.gov. After you access this website, search for the database for all colleges, universities, schools, and educational institutions that have been accredited by accrediting bodies or organizations recognized by the U.S. Department of Education.
Only education or degrees from accredited colleges, universities, schools, or institutions may be used to qualify for Federal employment.And the page suporting WGU is at: https://ope.ed.gov/dapip/#/institution-profile/165820
