If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsupported in your current teaching degree program—especially if you’re enrolled at WGU or a similar online university—you’re not alone.
Maybe the classes feel unclear. Maybe the support feels distant. Maybe the freedom to “go at your own pace” feels more like being lost in the dark.
If that’s you, here’s a tough but important question:
Can you really afford to stay where you’re unhappy?
Let’s break this down.

1. The Cost of Delay

Every month you feel stuck is a month you’re not certified. Every course you repeat or stall out on pushes your graduation further away.

And when your income and career depend on that degree? Delay = dollars lost.

At Gracelyn, our structured program is designed to keep you moving forward every week—without sacrificing flexibility.

2. The Emotional Toll

Working all day in a school and studying at night takes grit. Doing it with no real feedback, no personal coach, and no clear path? That’s exhausting.
“I didn’t realize how drained I was until I transferred. At Gracelyn, I finally felt seen—and supported.” – Former WGU Student, Now Certified Teacher
You deserve a learning experience that builds you up, not breaks you down.

3. The Risk of Burnout

The longer you stay in a program that doesn’t work for you, the more likely you are to give up altogether.
We hear from students all the time who say:

  • “I almost quit.”
  • “I thought maybe I wasn’t cut out for this.”
  • “I lost sight of why I started.”

The right program will remind you of your why—and help you reach it.

  • Bachelor’s Degree: $111–$222/month flat-rate
