Western Governors Univeristy Scam add additional courses in Last term without notice Salt Lake City Utah
This school is a scam. In my last term at WGU I had one course left to take which i could retake as many times until I pass. however they said if I do not pass this course on my first try they will add four more extensive courses to my degree program and to top it off I would likely have to take these courses next term because they are new courses and they dont have the material or time frame for courses yet.
When seeking help for such unfairness they kept writing notes in the system against me and would talk rudely relpying well deal with it with your school mentor who was unreachablel. I find this school to be really unfair and by Law they can do this to Students there is no law against it. Since they know that, they take full advantage of such by making students stay for additional terms.

WGU is accredited by the Northwest Commission on College and Universities. They have some pretty loose standards compared to some of the other regional accrediting agencies. You can, however, file a complaint with them at this website: http://www.nwccu.org/Complaints/ComplaintProcess.htm
You can also file a complaint with the Utah Division of Consumer Protection, which oversees educational institutions of higher ed: http://consumerprotection.utah.gov/complaints/index.html
Generally speaking, a college cannot change degree requirements if the student is consistently enrolled. You didn't say what degree you are seeking but those extra courses might turn out to be valuable. If you give me a little more information I might be able to direct you to other resources.
