Just graduated from college but I've been told my diploma won't come in for another 3 months for some reason.

As an employer, there needs to be a transcript more than the diploma.  If you have any unpaid loans that need to get taken care of.  Please get that done immediately.  Then, they can release your transcripts.  The transcript indicates the types of classes as well as the level of performance.  \n\nI always thought of the diploma as a more personal touch for the graduate.  Who is going to hang a transcript on the wall?  I'm thinking that there may have been a few smaller employers that may have been burned.  These days with corporate background checks as they are, they can find out if you attended and graduated.  Smaller businesses may not have the option of going with expensive background/education checks.  \n\nFinally, I would say, be honest with your prospective employer.  For awhile, I was one class short of full graduation and I was fully honest to my employers.  That made a difference.  If anything, it was almost as good as the diploma because it showed that I had integrity.  I wasn't flaunting that I was one class shy, but when asked, I replied honestly.  \n\nGood luck with your new employer!  You are lucky to get a great job right out of school.  For me, I had to work from the very bottom.  Not very fun.  Yet, I learned a great deal more along the way.  For instance, I feel that I have a better understanding of what the team members go through, because I have held nearly every position to get where I am today.  Whatever position you take, work hard to be the best you can be.  College will be a distant memory before you know it.

A friend of mine just completed the MA program at my school & is having the same problem. She says the college placed her in a position that led to nowhere. I suggested to go to an employment agency that specializes in health care. She found a temp. position in weeks. Time will tell if it works though...

Why don't you just write that you have processed diplomas at a local college? Processing legal documents to me sounds like you've filed papers at a court house, prepared briefs, transcribed legal information, or otherwise reviewed documents associated with a legal case. \n\nI think it's best to just put what you did, because it might be awkward if the interviewer asks you WHAT legal documents you processed. If he or she disagrees that college diplomas count ... it could be embarrassing and make you seem like you're not forthcoming. \n\nGood luck!

Tell them the truth that you're going to school. Three months notice is unusual.  They must have a hard time hiring people for your particular job and training them the way they want.\n Why tell the truth?  Because life has a way of throwing people into your path later on down the road.

First things first -- Do you have a return address on your envelope in case the 3 stamps was not enough? \n\nSecond -- I would still call to verify. When my daughter was applying to colleges last year, sometimes her paperwork slipped thru the cracks and had to be re-sent. Or the college misplaced her paperwork, in spite of the paperwork being sent! So you never know what is going on and you would hate to not be accepted for lack of complete paperwork. Good Luck!!!

You can try to write a letter to Kementerian stating that you have a need to further your studies in other ways.  If you have a compelling reason, they may let you out of the program.\n\nIt's worth a try!

I moved to the US from Europe with a high school degree from Germany. Usually schools want you to send in your diploma to an evaluation. All college web sites will tell you where to send it in. YOu should call a college and talk to an advisor. THat would be the best thing to do.

If you want a diploma it should really come from someone that knows what you have done in the course of your studies.  A diploma mill doesn't give anything that matters.  Besides, the main issue is this:  Have you done the work?  Do you know the material? Can you pass a college placement test?  \n\nWhere did you read that you can make your own diploma?  Why would you do that?  Some PARENTS give diplomas to their home-school graduates but I've never heard about the student making their own.  It probably won't mean anything to you or to anyone else if you did that anyway.  If I were you I would not bother.\n\nInstead of trying to acquire a meaningless piece of paper ------ take the college entrance SAT and let your score sheet be your proof of study.  Take the ACT too.  Get into an AP course or a few of them and do the work and take the test.  Another beneficial tool is CLEP.  These are the things that will matter to a college.  A contrived diploma will mean nothing.\n\nIf you were truly homeschooled and someone ELSE has a record of your work, study time, and abilities --THAT person should be the one giving you a document of completion.

At 16 you can drop out. At times we're a tough group here. You got married, nice to hear some people take responsibility for their actions. Try and finish school by correspondence or whatever, a diploma is still important. All the best.

I would ask someone like your advisor/mentor at the school where you got the degree you already have what options might be available to you, and how to go about getting and filling out the necessary paperwork.\n\nGood luck!

Why don't you just stay in school and get your diploma

You should have come to a solution long before the exam.  If you didn't make arrangments beforehand she is completely right to fail you.  However you could try getting your employer to write a letter stating that it was manditory for you to be out of state at that time.  You would also need to write your own letter stating the reasons why you think it is unfair, include in the letter if you actually did speak to your prof at any time regarding this matter.  Usually schools have a review board for students who wish to challenge their grades.  Call up the school and ask if they do, and what the proceedure is.  Don't wait.  Usually you have a limited time to act.

I graduated in 1988 and when applying for jobs nobody cared to see the diploma so I could have lied on applications they wouldn't have known.
