Congrats on you upcoming degree conferral!

I'm curious what the audit phase is like - can you elaborate? I assumed once you have all the courses transferred in and on your degree plan it'd be a formality of saying you're done, but it sounds a bit more involved than that.

It's a final check (formality) as far as I can tell.  They sent me an email saying the review was in progress pending final grades posting for the term, and if something was missing like a payment, they mention that and tell you take care of it and let them know.

More details are here https://www.tesu.edu/current-students/gr...nformation

It just felt more final than a few days ago seeing my capstone grade posted.

Congratulations!  It must feel incredible to be done.  Your post is very inspiring - I've been stressed through this whole capstone (halfway through, yay!) and your post made me see the light at the end of the tunnel.   

Awesome job, congrats again!

BALS - Option A, no concentration. "multidisciplinary approach" so it was mix of humanities and social sciences.
