Finished Coursework in Dec 2011, degree awarded in May 2013

Post by Life2good893 » Sat Dec 06, 2014 9:54 pm

It was a year and a half before my degree was awarded. Will be submitting addendum. Basically couldn't declare my major until after graduation due to not being able to get a class until the final semester of graduation. After major is declared the department has a policy that you can't graduate in that same semester you are declared so one year later I put myself on the degree list. But alas....the major requirements had changed so I needed to appeal...finally degree awarded a year and a half later.

Will this reflect negatively?

Thanks for the response Dirigo......I certainly hope not but I'm afraid they'll see it as me dropping the ball. Like I forgot to declare my candidacy or didn't bother to get one last requirement or something... I think I'm paranoid.
