Western Governors University
Welcome to the Western Governors University (WGU) booth!
WGU is an online university for the 21st century. We are driven by a mission to expand access to higher education through online, competency-based degree programs. Since its establishment over 25 years ago, WGU has grown into a national university, serving more than 120,000 students from all 50 states.
The university continues to open doors for adult learners who need flexibility to achieve their education and career goals. WGU's innovative competency-based academic approach makes it possible, allowing individuals to fit their education into their lives, not the other way around.
WGU was founded by the governors of 19 U.S. states. WGU's career and industry relevant degree programs are in the areas of healthcare, business, information technology and education.
