oh wow! thats amazing!! I couldn't hold out for the tassel it cost me $6 from amazon. I figured why not get the cap gown and tassel and be extra cheesy and take some grad pics?! I worked damn hard and I am going to be proud of myself! I'd like UMOI swag myself so I'll wait for the store to reopen. I've never been an Alumni before, so I don't even know what the fees for an Alumni would be for HAHAHAHAH!!!

I worked ridiculously hard for many years to finally finish my bachelor's degree so I wanted the full bells and whistles. LOL I took pictures at the lake I live off of with my cap & gown on holding the diploma case. I even brought my gold cord for graduating Summa cum Laude. I earned it! 

Some schools charge hundreds of dollars every year for their alumni association. Some are more active than others. It also depends on how close by you are to campus if you'll get much out of it. I'm thrilled to be an alumni! I'm super excited to become an LSU alumni as well this fall. I'll be collecting those tassels and diplomas now! Then I'm off to grad school. I have 2 for associate degrees but they were never really exciting. Might be because of how much work went into my bachelor's degree. Lot of papers!

Hey congratulations by the way! Isn't it an awesome feeling to be a graduate?

My GPA ended up being a 3.78 and I know that earns me Magna cum Laude, so I ordered the cord and the stole too. We totally earned these degrees. I lost so much sleep this last week, and I'm praying I sleep tonight. I'm so anxious about the grades. 
I graduated pierpont on the 7th, but that was like ehh, who cares. This is a whole other level of excitement!!!  Did you do another bachelors with LSU? and where are you going for grad school?

Make sure your degree from UMPI is conferred asap and afterward UMPI transcripts sent over to WGU through the National Student Clearing House. WGU will need to complete the degree evaluation BEFORE June 15 if you plan on starting on July 1.

This term ends July 2nd. From my experience, degrees are not conferred until after the term has ended. The process takes about a month to be completed after the term ends. So I'm not sure how getting the degree conferred by June 15th is even possible. Have you spoken to Jessica about this? She told me that my degree wouldn't conferred until after the term was completed and the process takes about a month. Mine took a little less time because it was completed Spring Term 1 before the Registrar was working through the May graduates and Jessica asked them to try to rush it because I was planning on enrolling in the MAOL and my degree needed to confer before I could start. Definitely check all of this out with Jessica. She's out of the office right now from what I understand.

I think the entire school knows that I need a degree conferral ASAP. After every class has finished I've personally reached out to the instructors and asked for grades to be sent to Alex the registrar. I've also personally reached out to Alex and asked for an ASAP conferral and he said as soon as all my grades are in he will do it that day or the next business day. So it looks like my degree will be officially conferred on the 1st, because apparently the Chancellor of UMPI gave everyone the day off.

It is a holiday weekend! Last summer, the staff was off on Fridays which is pretty common at many colleges in the summer.

I do. But I only know them because I had all my instructors send the registrar my final grade and they happened to CC me in their emails. I ended up with 3 b's and 4 A's
