The thread is ALIVE. Checking in for substantial writing malaise. I think mine is unofficially due mid-semester b/c the prof wants time to give me comments. But who knows. Plugging away but progress is slow.

Also a good thing to knock out while procrastinating on substantial writing is the New York Law Course videos. 15 hours with intermittent questions takes forever.

There's an extension for profs who have over 100 finals total, even if thats over multiple classes.
I'm pretty sure i got a grade over a weekend once? But I wouldn't realistically expect anything until tuesday

Re: NYU Class of 2017 - Basically graduated
I've been under the impression that Academic Services has to approve, enter, and post the grades. I once got one at 8:00PM+ and thought they were working overtime--silly me.
Anyone in the know?

Nice update on the thread title. Grade releases are definitely a black box.

Pretty sure one of my professors released grades on Saturday since nothing was there when I checked Friday night. I guess anything is possible!

I think your drafts can be shorter, but the final one should be 10k words. They might let it slide, but maybe not - don't risk not getting certified for graduation.phillywc wrote:so this sub writing

When do we get grades? I'm going to be worried about whether or not I actually graduated for real until I have grades lolSlytherpuff wrote:We did it!
Also from other old threads, it looks like Latin Honors are typically June or July?

Professors have to get grades in by June 8 so I'm guessing most classes will have grades posted around the deadline.

Does anyone have data points on Latin honors from previous years?
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
