Western Governors University

Benefit: WGU’s tuition averages about $4,000 per 6-month term for most programs. In lieu of a discount, students are charged at a flat rate, which means students may complete as many courses as they are able in any term at no additional cost. Terms at WGU are six months long, and students may begin on the first day of any month. Many students are able to accelerate their progress because courses have no set time requirements. This allows them to save time as well as tuition expense. Application fee will be waived.

Who is eligible: Federal Government employees and their spouses and dependents who apply, are admitted, and enroll in WGU under this Agreement are the Program Participants. Each Program Participant shall be responsible for working with their WGU Program Mentor to plan and complete the sequence of required courses in the program of study covered by this Agreement.
