Our core principles

 
 
Dear Septian,

WGU Texas can help you reach your personal and academic goals. A major part of how we do that is by adhering to the following core principles:
 
Every WGU Texas graduate is highly competent.
The competencies and courses required for your degree program are research-based and developed by a council of experts in higher education and the industry. Using the most rigorous standards available, these competencies are determined to be those necessary for your career success. When you graduate, you can be certain you have the knowledge and skills employers demand.

WGU Texas verifies the competencies of students through assessments, not credit hours.
Unlike other online universities, WGU Texas awards degrees based on passing a series of assessments that measure your skills and knowledge in your chosen field. This can be advantageous for you if you possess significant experience already, as you can use this experience to complete your assessments faster, ultimately saving you time and money.
 
These are just a couple of our core principles we hold as a university. If you want to talk more about our commitments to you, contact your Enrollment Counselor. We look forward to answering your questions.

Best regards,

Daren Upham

WGU - Texas - Back to School for 2020

 
 

Dear Septian,

It's almost Thanksgiving. More than 89,000 students and 90,000 graduates are thankful for the difference education is making for them. Why not be thankful for your own quality education?

Did you know that, on average, most WGU Texas students complete their degree programs within 2–2.5 years? So, if you start now, you could have your degree in hand by Thanksgiving 2020.

For a limited time, WGU Texas is offering a special scholarship opportunity for all new students:

 
 

THE 2020 VISION SCHOLARSHIP
Valued at up to $2,000
(Application deadline December 31, 2017)

 
 

At WGU, you can earn an accredited degree on your schedule, and for about half what you'd pay at other universities. Plus, WGU's competency-based education model lets you put what you already know to work for you to potentially graduate faster.

 
 
 
 

Sincerely,

Robin Hamilton

Twenty-three percentage points higher, in fact. What is it about WGU that makes its academic support so much better? It's having one-to-one interaction with faculty built into our education model.

The Difference a Degree Makes

Even though earning a degree is hard work, continuing your education really can make a difference for you, your family, and even your community. See how one WGU grad used her final project to save a local hospital—the only one for 20 miles—and ensure that her community would have access to vital healthcare facilities.
