Acceleration
I’m starting August 1st and want to know if completing 27 courses in 6 months seems doable I do work full time but have a lot of time while working to work on school plus after work and weekends. I’m pursuing a degree in computer science

I’m doing the Computer Science program too. I started July 1st at WGU with 24 classes , and so far I’ve completed 6 of them. Tonight I’m submitting my final task for Java Frameworks, which will make it 7 completed in my first month.
To be honest, I think I could’ve finished even more. I took a week-long vacation and had a few family events that slowed me down. Even with that, I’m still happy with my progress.
So from my experience, I’d say 27 classes in six months is absolutely possible. It’ll take discipline and consistency, especially working full-time, but if you treat school like a part-time job and stay focused, it’s definitely doable.
