    Question COSC Academic Autobiography & Graduation

    Ok, I know they say allow 4 weeks for approval, but how long does it really take? Can anyone please share with me any info they have on this? I'm simply trying to make a rought estimate on how long my approval will take.

    One more thing: I noticed that summer classes end July 19th. does that mean the students that took a summer course eill not be able to confer on July31st? Would they have to wait an additional 2 months for a conferral? I would think they would align their conferral dates to somewhat (not exact) match their end of semester grades release.

    Thanks

    Default Did you try this question on the COSC forum?

    I have not seen many COSC people on this website. Maybe you would have more luck there.

    Default Don't feel bad

    I have been waiting since April on COSC to do My Eval, they the way they are going I will be graduated with EC before COSC finishes my Eval.

    I have to say that , EC is on top of the game, compared to the other 2, I have not heard anything from TESC either.

    I just need to take a on-line research methods class and finish PFC , and LSU and I am done.

    Perhaps you can contact some of the people who have already gone through the same process recently in the following thread:
    http://www.instantcertonline.com/for...biography.html

    I also read that you could submit your autobiography to etutoring.org for review (free service for COSC students) before sending it in for final scoring, but you've probably already done that:
    COSC Academic Autobiography - Distance Learning Discussion Forums

    Hoping you'll hear from them soon...

    I believe a read somewhere on COSC site that you could request to graduate pending a course. Verify with COSC.

    Ok, so my advisor finally got in touch with me. She said that all we can do right now is wait for the faculty to finish reviewing my Academic Autobiography. She know's I'm planning on starting grad school in August....Why can't she stress that to the faculty? Anyhow, at least I touched bases with her. If the faculty can get it done by the end of next week or first two days of the following week, I'll be ok.

    Keep your fingeres and toes crossed for me!
