Is this an accredited university? I dropped out of school in 2007 (quite luckily I might add) and have been itching to go back. This sounds like it'd work really well for me.

Yup. WGU is the first accredited school to use the competency based approach but it is a growing trend in higher education.

Let me know if you have any questions about it or want an application waiver, I love answering questions about WGU.
