This is great to know about though. Would be interesting to complete such a program for somebody with the knowledge coming out of high school. Makes you wonder how it would affect admission criteria at other 4 year colleges if you can show an entire CS degree on your application.
I wonder how that gets weighted?

At competitive schools, most likely negatively. Just apply to the graduate program. Getting a WGU degree is not some sign of academic prowess that would rate one highly at an elite university — maybe the equivalent of perfect GPA in a college-bound HS curriculum. Being a big fish in a small pond is not exceptional. At large state schools, they would just treat it like a CC and let you transfer in a certain number or credits (mostly non-major). At most other schools, they won’t care as long as you pay them.
