Answer:

Western Governors University (WGU) is regionally accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU), and therefore credits earned at WGU can be accepted as transfer credit at other accredited colleges and universities. Regional accreditation is a voluntary process where colleges and universities are evaluated by an institutional accrediting agency to ensure that each accredited school abides by specific universal standards of quality. However, most colleges and universities will only accept transfer credit that was earned in college-level coursework with a minimum required grade (which is usually a "C" or higher). Furthermore, some colleges place a limit on the number of transfer credits that can be accepted and some credits may not be eligible to satisfy specific degree requirements. Students who are interested in transferring to another college or university are advised to check the specific transfer requirements for their desired college and program of study.
