<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I am seeking information on when everyone confers degrees for students completing course requirements in block terms. Right now, Southeastern confers degrees three times a year: December, May, and August.
This is with one official graduation/degree date for each term—even if the student completed requirements in the first half of the “parent” term and/or were conferred late for the term. Since we offer two block terms within a traditional 16 week “parent”
term, we are being asked to consider conferring degrees at the end of the first 8-week block and again at the end of the traditional term. Since we’ve never done things that way before, I wanted to see what everyone else is doing.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">My questions are:</span></p>
<ol start="1" type="1" style="margin-top:0in">
<li class="x_MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size:12.0pt">How many times do you confer degrees per semester/year?</span></li><li class="x_MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size:12.0pt">If more than once a term, how many times per semester?</span></li><li class="x_MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Do you have issues with NSC enrollment/degree reporting if you graduate students at multiple times in a semester?</span></li></ol>
