My diplomas have been ordered! Whoo Hoo!

Good work, eriehiker. I have also enjoyed your posts and course suggestions. I will never forget The Month of Davar. What a fun challenge - maybe something else like it will come along.

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?

No, they'll tell you what the conferral date is going to be when they email with with your successful audit. Mine was the 10th of the graduation month. Your diploma and official transcript will come a couple of weeks or so after that.

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.

That's Great! I am so happy for you! I have my own good news. I just received  word from Excelsior College that I have completed the 117 credits needed, and only need the capstone to complete my degree. After over 12 years, I worked very hard to finally get here. All along the way naysayers. NY City is full of them. I plan to take my degree and move back out West.
