How Does WGU’s Cybersecurity Masters Program Work? Including Certs & Requirements? & Expected Length Of Time Needed? Do they offer resources & Help? Is WGU Worth it/Credible?
Hey, I have a background of Finance, but want to get into IT/Cybersecurity. I heard WGU offer’s certs, so i will be applying soon. And YES, I plan to get a master’s in cybersecurity, yes i know some will say “save ur money!!1 get certs.”, If not WGU, I’d just take a traditional college. Please respond to every question, I’d really appreciate it. 1.) What is the official website to apply for WGU Cybersecurity Masters program? 2.) What are the requirements? Are you required to get certs before you graduate? I heard some certs take months to study, and you have to go take them in person. Do you have to take and prove you pass those certs to WGU before you can move forward with your masters program? 3.) If you do have to take those certs do you have to pay out of pocket? Or is it covered (ie. If you do financial aid, etc.). Also what Certs are needed/ required? 4.) How many classes is needed? And how many classes can you take in one semester? 5.) How is the teaching in WGU? Is it pre-recorded work? Are professors available to help you? Or even set up appointments to help you ? 6.) Is WGU Worth it & a credible institution?
