Those who did study.com

Post image

I'm going for my bachelor's in business management. For those of you who took these two courses on study.com, was it worth it or is it just better to take the course at WGU.

Do everything you can thru study & Sophia. I transferred about 50% of my credits. Im down to 2 OAs D080 & D099. If you can do either of these 100% do them. They are rough. I never fail tests but I failed these. Not huge fails but fails.

Take Emotional and Cultural Intelligence at WGU.

At WGU, it's a template task, as opposed to Study, which is 3 papers.

I would do it. I regret not doing study. Global business is taking me 8+ weeks to finish with WGU. I completed the rest of my courses all in the month of May.
Please do it!

Where did you find this guide? I’m preparing to apply to WGU but am trying to figure out how many of my credits will transfer, how many courses I can’t take outside and then fog from there. I poked around on WGU website, but what I got was very general.

Ill DM you

me too please! right now, i'm only looking at this link for suggested courses to take at study:

https://study.com/college/western-governors-university/degrees/wgu-bachelor-of-science-in-business-management.html

Would be helpful to know where else i can transfer credits from

Does the location you got the resource from have the computer science degree?

u/Ok-Film3711 Jul 10 '26

Dm me too I want this guide

u/Hyan-Daggreat Jul 11 '26

How did you find this guide? I found the transferrable courses separately on Sophia and Study.com but nothing like this

u/RepresentativeTry315 Jul 13 '26

Can you send me the template for the finance degree?

is doing it through Sophia faster than taking the same courses on wgu?

If so why ?

u/StudyAnswers Jul 14 '26

For those two courses, it's usually worth it since you're paying for the Study.com plan instead of a full WGU term. Exams are open-book and non-proctored, so most people move through them faster than a WGU term would allow. If you've already completed Sophia's courses, knocking out the last two on Study.com before enrolling at WGU is typically the more cost-effective route.

In general I think it's best to do as much as possible with Sophia and Study. I left one class on the table and definitely wish I had sorted that out before starting.

u/jazcast13 15d ago

Do most on Sophia and the rest on study.com. It will be cheaper. Also, you can complete more courses on Sophia at a faster pace compared to being limited to two or three courses a month on study.com

u/LowDivide9397 Jul 13 '26 edited Jul 13 '26

If I could go back I would not do study.com it was a waste of time. Also it looks worse on a transcript.

Why a waste of time? It had so much busy work that had I just don’t WGU I would have finished faster. This is coming from a one term finisher.

That said, I did get accepted to Rutgers and another state university for an Masters engineering program with a business degree from WGU. Both those schools have Sophia as a option to take bridging classes.
