D311 Microbiology with Lab: A Fundamental Approach (NURS 1010, 4 CUs in the September 2026 WGU catalog) is the microbiology gen-ed lab course of six health tables: the RN to BSN in term 4, the B.S. Health Science in term 4, and all three RN to MSN bridge tracks in term 5. Structure and function of microorganisms, disease transmission and progression, immune responses and interventions, and key global diseases, with lab experiments integrated into the course and 48 to 60 hours of content time estimated for students new to the topic. Coursework Ninja completes D311 done-for-you, fixed quote in writing first. From $99. Independent of WGU.
Per WGU's published description, Microbiology with Lab: A Fundamental Approach explores the science that microorganisms are everywhere, with positive and negative effects on the community. The course examines the structure and function of microorganisms, disease transmission and progression, immune responses and other interventions, and identifies key global diseases. It consists of an introduction and four major sections, and it integrates several lab experiments to help determine the specific characteristics of an unknown microbial sample and a treatment plan. Because the course is self-paced, the catalog notes that students with no prior knowledge of the topic can expect to spend 48 to 60 hours on the content. There are no prerequisites for this course.
Six catalog tables carry D311: term 4 of the RN to BSN, where it is one of the gen-ed science courses many working nurses still owe after transfer; term 4 of the B.S. Health Science; and term 5 of all three RN to MSN bridge tracks (Education, Leadership and Management, and Nursing Informatics). It also appears in term 3 of the pre-nursing portion of the prelicensure BSN, a track we do not cover because live clinical hours stay with the student. The lab experiments are integrated into the course itself per the catalog; how the lab component is handled for your exact situation is spelled out at intake, never assumed. Message us the code and where you stand, and we quote a flat price in writing.
Every full package includes the written 6-month guarantee: we finish the remaining CUs under the agreed plan, or you do not pay. Packages: Bachelor's $3,000 · Master's $3,500 · both $5,500 · single assessments from $99.
Coverage
The catalog states the course covers four competencies covered in the final assessment, but WGU does not publish the format. Student communities report an objective assessment for microbiology, with the integrated lab experiments documented inside the course. We confirm the current format for your catalog year at intake, and the fixed quote covers whichever assessment D311 carries.
The description opens with the structure and function of microorganisms: bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, how each is built, and how each reproduces. This is the vocabulary layer the later sections grade with, and newcomers underestimate how much of the assessment draws on it.
Disease transmission and progression plus immune responses and other interventions form the clinical middle of the course: chains of infection, host defenses, and where an intervention breaks the chain. Working nurses know this by practice; the course still requires the textbook framing.
The catalog names identifying key global diseases as a course outcome. That section ties organism to disease to intervention at the population level, and it is the part most experience-based shortcuts skip.
Several lab experiments are integrated into the course to determine the characteristics of an unknown microbial sample and a treatment plan, per the published description. The lab component is part of the course itself; how it is handled for your situation is confirmed in writing at intake as part of the fixed quote.
WGU's own estimate for a student new to the topic is 48 to 60 hours of content time. On a 12-hour-shift schedule that is six to ten weeks of evenings, which is exactly why this gen-ed stalls otherwise finished nurses. Done-for-you completion removes that block from the term plan entirely.
D311 alone is a single from $99. On a longer remaining RN to BSN list it folds into the flat bachelor's package at $3,000; on an RN to MSN bridge list it folds into the $5,500 stack, both with the written 6-month finish guarantee.

Bottlenecks
D311 stalls experienced nurses and health-science students who treat a 4-CU lab science as just another gen ed. These are the stalls we take over most often.

Per the September 2026 WGU institutional catalog, Microbiology with Lab: A Fundamental Approach (NURS 1010, 4 CUs) examines the structure and function of microorganisms, disease transmission and progression, immune responses and other interventions, and identifies key global diseases. It consists of an introduction and four major sections, integrates several lab experiments to determine the characteristics of an unknown microbial sample and a treatment plan, estimates 48 to 60 hours for students new to the topic, and states there are no prerequisites.
Per the current catalog, 6 tables: term 4 of the RN to BSN, term 4 of the B.S. Health Science, and term 5 of all three RN to MSN bridge tracks (Education, Leadership and Management, and Nursing Informatics). It also appears in the pre-nursing portion of the prelicensure BSN, a track we do not cover because live clinical hours there stay with the student.
WGU does not publish assessment formats in the catalog. The catalog states the course has four competencies covered in the final assessment, and student communities report an objective assessment with the lab experiments documented inside the course. We confirm the current format for your exact catalog year at intake, and the fixed quote covers whichever assessment the course carries.
The published description says the lab experiments are integrated into the course itself, built around determining the characteristics of an unknown microbial sample and a treatment plan. We never assume the lab mechanics: the handling for your exact catalog year and situation is spelled out in writing at intake, as part of the fixed quote, before any work begins.
WGU's own estimate is 48 to 60 hours of content time for a student with no prior knowledge, and the course is self-paced. On a full-time shift schedule that commonly stretches to most of a term, which is why this single gen ed is so often the last course standing. Done-for-you completion removes it from your calendar entirely.
One course starts at $99, with the exact figure fixed in writing once we know where you stand. On a longer remaining list, the bachelor's package is $3,000 flat, the master's is $3,500, and the RN to MSN bridge is the $5,500 stack, each with the written 6-month finish guarantee covering every course on the plan.
