"Higher income…"
"WGU's program is allowing me to expand my career choices and earn a higher income in my chosen field of education. As a father of a young and growing family of three sons, these things are important and add security for my family."

|
"The flexibility offered…"
"Without the flexibility offered by Western Govenors University, it would not be possible for me to earn my master's degree. I work full-time and then some at a professional job, have two preschool-aged children, and manage a household."

"Fit school into my life…"
"The learning format at WGU allowed me to progress as fast or slow as needed according to my schedule. I was able to fit school into my life, instead of fitting life into school."
