[Oacrao-l] Award degree years later

[Gowdy, Barbara]

We would require him to re-apply for graduation under the current semester.  We would not consider that he had met degree requirements until the transcript had been received and evaluated.  Same with the second scenario, he would be part of the current graduating class as that would be when he first applied.

Subject: [Oacrao-l] Award degree years later

We have a student whose degree was never awarded because we never received his transcript from a college from which he transferred a course.  The transcript has since been received and the student is requesting that his degree be awarded.  Would you award based on when he actually completed or require them to file to be part of the current graduating class?

And yet another fun scenario to consider.  Student declared a business major but did not fulfill the requirements for that program.  However, in reviewing their file they would have completed the requirements for another program.  Student is now requesting to graduate under new program.  Same question.  Would you award based on their original enrollment or require them to file to be part of the current graduating class?

I just love this time of year!  All of the outrageous situations are posed!

Blessings to all as the fall semester begins to wind down.

David
