graduation question

How does this work? The deadline for June graduation is April. Can I apply if I am finishing my classes in April, but will have 1 elective class to finish in May, being taken somewhere else, but will be done prior to graduation in June? Or will not having that complete mean I don't meet the requirements?

I have plenty of time. I was just trying to plan out my semesters and wanted to see when I would actually have my bsn to get into a msn program. I didn't want to have to double up all crazy just to be finished by the summer but my advisor said you can apply even if you aren't finished with the last semesters classes. I hope she's not lying. They seem to get confused sometimes

LOL - you might want to check that! I don't think they will accept you until you graduate. May not have to have degree in hand, but you will need to graduate first before applying. Lots of confusion over that ....

You can apply without being finished. They see on your transcripts where you are, and it's on an implied basis that you will have everything done by admission. You will have to give an updated transcript when you graduate, and will be denied admission if you have not finished the required lacking courses.

So does 4600 Excellence not have to be taken last anymore? I'm confused, lol

Never mind, I found it, it can be taken towards the end.

Does anyone taking the online courses go to Athens and march for graduation? I am only thinking about it because I have two teenagers. It would be really cool for them to see their old mom in get her degree. It would be great for all my kids really, since they have had to put with a lot of crap with me being back in school.

That is a good idea, if you are able to then you should. I was thinking of attending, however i live out of state.
