WGU’s Low, Flat-Rate Tuition Can Help You Graduate with Less Debt
- Flat-rate tuition. One low tuition fee charged per six-month term covers as many courses as you can complete in that time. WGU’s respected healthcare degree programs start at just $4,210 a term.
- Non-profit. WGU is a nonprofit, meaning we keep costs down and prioritize student success over extra dollars. That’s why we offer our institutionally accredited, employer-respected degrees for less money than many other institutions.
- Credit for what you know. At WGU, it’s your knowledge that matters, not busywork. Our competency-based programs allow you to tackle your degree as fast as you’re able, potentially reducing the number of terms you need to graduate.
- Career advancement. At WGU, you’ll gain the knowledge and skills that healthcare employers want in their high-growth, high-income roles. In fact, across all programs, WGU bachelor’s and master’s degree graduates see a two-year average salary increase of $21,040 and $18,550 respectively.*
