WGU Student explains the school where nothing gets graded

wgustudent.com Observed source
Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An independent guide to WGU nursing programmes, focusing on competency scoring, six-month terms, assessment attempts, and state-specific exclusions.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The homepage uses a six-row sample Performance Assessment rubric to demonstrate the difference between competency clearance and conventional percentage grading: one failed aspect returns the entire task, even when the other five pass. It also distinguishes written-work revisions from objective-assessment limits, stating that the latter allow four attempts, with the third and fourth costing $60 each. A separate portal is linked, while the explanatory guides and a free recommendation form are visible without an account.
