WGU course completion
At a glance
Last updated
D890 Calculus I (MATH 2120, 3 CUs in the September 2026 WGU catalog) is the calculus opener of the math and physics education paths: term 5 of both secondary mathematics education tables behind the D889 trigonometry gate, term 6 of both secondary physics education tables, and term 1 of the M.A. Science Education (Secondary Physics). Limits and continuity, derivatives and their applications, definite and indefinite integrals, and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. Coursework Ninja completes D890 done-for-you, fixed quote in writing first. From $99. Independent of WGU.
Per WGU's published description, D890 offers a foundational exploration of the essential concepts and applications of calculus. The course begins with an overview of calculating limits and continuity of functions, setting the stage for the study of derivatives. Students then explore applications of derivatives, including applications to objects in motion, optimization, and related rates. Finally, the course focuses on both definite and indefinite integrals, leading to the mastery of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, and it prepares students for advanced mathematical studies and the advanced calculus topics addressed in Calculus II and Multivariable Calculus.
Five catalog tables carry D890. On the mathematics education path it sits at term 5 of the B.S. Mathematics Education (Secondary) and its Educational Studies counterpart, the fourth gate of a ladder that runs C278 College Algebra in term 2, D667 Precalculus in term 3, D889 Trigonometry in term 4, then D890, with D891 Calculus II (MATH 3170) directly behind it in term 6. The two secondary physics education tables schedule it in term 6, and the M.A. Science Education (Secondary Physics) opens with it in term 1: licensed teachers adding a physics endorsement meet calculus before any physics course. 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
WGU does not publish assessment formats in the catalog. Student communities report a proctored objective assessment (OA) for the calculus course, consistent with the exam pattern of the algebra, precalculus, and trigonometry gates in front of it. We confirm the current format for your catalog year at intake, and the fixed quote covers whichever assessment D890 carries.
The description's opening: calculating limits and continuity of functions, the foundation the derivative unit stands on. Students who skip the limit intuition pay for it in every later topic.
The description's middle: derivatives, then applications to objects in motion, optimization, and related rates. The word problems are where memorized rules stop working, because the setup is the scored skill.
The description's finish: definite and indefinite integrals leading to the mastery of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, the result that connects the two halves of the course and the result the exam leans on hardest.
The description names the follow-ons: Calculus II and Multivariable Calculus. On the math education tables D891 Calculus II (MATH 3170) sits in term 6, one term behind D890, so a weak or slipped calculus clear moves every course after it by a term, and the term is the unit WGU bills. Both follow-ons now have their own completion pages under /courses.
D890 alone is a single from $99. On a remaining list in any of the five tables it folds into the flat package: $3,000 for the bachelor's paths, $3,500 for the M.A. Science Education (Secondary Physics), every remaining academic CU under the written 6-month finish guarantee.

Bottlenecks
D890 is where the education degree stops feeling like review and starts feeling like mathematics: limits, derivatives, and integrals, with the working adult's calendar as the real opponent. These are the stalls we take over most often.

Per the September 2026 WGU institutional catalog, Calculus I (MATH 2120, 3 CUs) covers calculating limits and continuity of functions, derivatives, applications of derivatives including objects in motion, optimization, and related rates, and both definite and indefinite integrals leading to the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. The catalog states it prepares students for advanced mathematical studies and for the advanced calculus topics in Calculus II and Multivariable Calculus.
Per the current catalog, 5 tables: term 5 of the B.S. Mathematics Education (Secondary) and the B.A. Educational Studies in Secondary Mathematics Education, term 6 of the B.S. Science Education (Secondary Physics) and its Educational Studies counterpart, and term 1 of the M.A. Science Education (Secondary Physics).
WGU does not publish assessment formats in the catalog. Student communities report a proctored objective assessment (OA) for the calculus course, consistent with the exam pattern of the math gates around it. We confirm the current format for your exact catalog year at intake, and the fixed quote covers whichever assessment the course carries.
Per the September 2026 catalog, the ladder runs C278 College Algebra (MATH 1015) in term 2, D667 Precalculus (MATH 1040) in term 3 with the catalog stating a college-algebra prerequisite, D889 Trigonometry (MATH 2110) in term 4 with the catalog stating no prerequisites, then D890 Calculus I in term 5 and D891 Calculus II (MATH 3170) in term 6. A slipped gate moves the whole ladder by a term.
Because the endorsement content assumes the math first. Per the September 2026 catalog, the M.A. Science Education (Secondary Physics) schedules D890 Calculus I in term 1, ahead of the mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and waves rows. Licensed teachers adding physics meet calculus before any physics course, which is exactly the intake we schedule first on the completion plan.
One course starts at $99, with the exact figure fixed in writing once we know where you stand. If D890 is one row on a longer remaining list, the bachelor's package is $3,000 flat and the master's package is $3,500, both with the written 6-month finish guarantee covering every academic course on the plan.
Yes. The M.A. Mathematics Education (Secondary) track carries Calculus I as C363 (MATH 5406, 2 CUs) in term 1, for licensed teachers, with the catalog naming precalculus as its prerequisite the same way, and C363 now has its own completion page. Its published topic list is differential calculus of one variable; D890's 3-CU description includes integrals. The Middle Grades track carries its own calculus row as MATH 5410 (QJT2). Same name, different code and CU count; the code on your program plan decides, and we confirm it before quoting.
No. We are an independent paid completion service, not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Western Governors University. WGU provides its own instructors, mentors, and evaluators; Coursework Ninja is separate, for students who want this course finished on a fixed date.
