I know a bunch of y'all got the AAS from Pierpont, but have any of you actually gone to the graduation in person? Since I am going to be living about 2 and a half hours away, I'm really considering it next May. I've never had a real graduation so this is important to me.

I don't think anyone from this forum has ever attended a Pierpont graduation. If you get to go, that'd be awesome!

I decided that I am going to attend the graduation. It is a drag that it won't happen until next May, but it's my own fault for procrastinating! Now I'm just waiting to hear back from Nancy re: my final degree audit. She said previously that I met all the requirements but I want to be sure! I still don't know where Lisa the registrar came up with 88 credits for me.

You should be able to view what credits got transferred in. I think they've changed it around a bit, so you might have to do some digging.

I need to call the IT Help Desk because I still can't get into my ROAR account.

Yes, why not? Basically, Highly recommend you contact them ahead of time when you graduate. And a second time to confirm when it's closer to that graduation date that you'd like to be on-site (if there is an option). I suggest you do so if you really want that feeling to sink in!
