"As an employer, first and foremost, the ReNEW Fund is mission aligned and it solves a problem for us. When we look at risk and reward, it鈥檚 all reward for us. These students have gone through a verified program. They are skilled, they are licensed, and they are ready to start day one. All we have to do is pay back the loan into the Fund and that is reinvested in more WGU students.鈥�

When employers, industry leaders, and academic experts hold your alma mater in high esteem, you reap the benefits of that respect.听WGU is a pioneer in reinventing higher education for the 21st century, and our quality is institutionally recognized.
