The last step in gaining admission to WGU was my intake interview. It's supposed to be yet another checkpoint to determine if I'm indeed ready to begin online studies. Jay, my enrollment counselor had mentioned that since he and I had talked about what "competency-based approach" was, and that I already knew what the grading system was, I'd do fine.
I got the distinct feeling that the intake interview was just a formality, and one of the boxes that needed to be checked off. In addition to asking the tough questions above, Jay asked me to confirm my name, email address, the fact that I had access to high-speed Internet, as well as my desired degree program. No sweat.
This was by far, the easiest interview I've ever taken. If you've read the WGU website and paid attention, you'll probably do just fine. No worries on this one.
