I tried to apply to wgu but got stuck in some bureaucratic hell. Have a degree in an unrelated field. Also have ap credits from 20 years ago. Wgu demands I send them the ap credits but at this point there is basically no way to get them from the college board.


I feel like someone who has been employed in tech for 15 or more years should simply be able to test out of a lot of these requirements anyway.


Didn't the AP credits go towards the unrelated degree already? I doubt you can use them twice. If anything you should be able to use whatever course credit they gave you the first time as evidence of completing the course using your transcript from the first degree.


Wgu asked for my college transcript which listed the ap courses. After I sent them the transcript they asked for the ap scores.

Telling them they are 20+ years old, I have no way of getting them, and I am fine retaking the courses led absolutely no where.


weird, although college board is still around, if they aren't able to validate AP results, I don't know why they even exist.
