My diplomas have been ordered! Whoo Hoo! - eriehiker - 05-09-2018
I just got the emails this morning that my diplomas have been ordered: BSBA in Accounting and CIS; ASNSM in Math and Computer Science; Certificates in Finance, Marketing, Operations Management and Organizational Leadership.
This is not an "I'm done" thread because I am still working on science, math and computer courses until and probably after graduation. This community is fantastic and I will post some thank yous when the diplomas come in the mail.
Also, my twins, Grace and Emma, turn five today. Good day all around.

Congrats!! I am scheduled for a graduation check on May 29th and received word today from my instructor that she submitted my capstone grade to the registrar. If I am allowed to join the June graduates, will they send an email saying my diploma was ordered?
RE: My diplomas have been ordered! Whoo Hoo! - eriehiker - 05-10-2018
Yes! That's what they did for me.

I'm soooo excited. I have to stop myself from checking my email every five minutes!

Big Congrats to you!
Can I please ask you a few questions? I am on my final course (BUS421 Capstone for BSBA Finance). The course ends on July 22. Assuming I get a C, I will graduate in September.
My question is when can we say we have a college degree (for employment purposes as an example)?
A friend told me he feels the actual graduation doesn't have to be in the past. He said, once I have all of the credits in then I can say I have the degree. Is this true? For example, academic advising said they start the audits in late July. Does this mean once the audit is done, I can legally say I am a college graduate?
In case you are wondering...I am looking for a new role and the degree will be helpful. Additionally, I have completed a professional designation that requires the undergrad work to be done before you can use the credentials.
Any help is appreciated.

Technically, you can't claim it until it confers. I would put it on my resume with the future graduation date. That way they know you're close, but you're not trying to pull the wool over anyone's eyes.
Before I graduated, they sent me a couple of embossed letters on TESU stationary certifying that I'd satisfied my graduation requirements. I would think that most employers would accept that, but they came only about a month ahead of conferral.

And conferral isn't the actual date the graduation ceremony is, correct?
