Question about WGU

Assume I have all the certs you can get from their degree program. Would that be pretty much an instant degree from them as long as I had the basics out of the way? How does it work if someone has most of the certs out of the way? Are there other classes you must take that you don't get certifications for? Thanks...

There are a few that most people don't have like the CIW certifications. I think you can transfer up to 75% of your degree from prior coursework and certs combined.

There are plenty of classes you have to take that don't include certifications. It depends on the program you are going for. For my Security degree, I had to do the regular general ed courses as well as a couple programming classes, technical writing, and the capstone project. It just depends what degree you are going for

Thanks for the replies.

Yeah, if you have the certs it acts like a transfer course. I "transferred" my CCNA into my current program because CCENT was one of the cert exams you take.
