Title: I'm a College Graduate! (unofficially)
Post by: Thorsteinn on 2012-12-14, 07:33:59

I'm 95% sure of this:
I just completed everything I need to. I am now a college graduate after 15 years, and four majors, with a degree in General Studies from a 4 year school.*

Now to hoping it helps me get a job to complete he rest of my studies.

*I don't have the paper yet, and the red tape has yet to fully process, but I have done everything I need to receive an Associates in General Studies (AGS). 15 years after I started college, and 12 years after I went back to get a stop-gap degree.

Holy Sh**!!!  :o :D 8)
Just looked online & saw I got a 100% on my Math final giving me an "A" for the course....I'm done. It's all done. I've completed every class, hurdle, & bit of paperwork I need to to graduate.

I won't have the entry on my transcript for 3 months, or the diploma for 4, and they only do the ceremonies once a year (they have thousands of students but only a 12% grad rate. UNR does 3-4 ceremonies a year by comparison) so I don't know when it becomes really official, but I'm calling it a done thing paperwork be damned.  ;D

That once a year thing is pretty normal, my graduation was the same way. The paper is all that matters in the end. :)
