COMMENTS: A University with no Campus
"The best relatively cheap university you have never heard of." That was the rave from Time magazine about Western Governors University that Tom Costello quoted approvingly for NBC's What Works series. WGU was founded twelve years ago yet its growth was so slow that by 2003 it had only 500 students. Now the fully-accredited not-for-profit school is "among the biggest providers of math and science teachers in inner cities," with a student body of 14,000, charging $6,000 annual tuition. Where is the WGU campus? Nowhere. All its courses are taught online.
