Deferred examination and graduating
Hey all,

I am not feeling to good and have an exam on Thursday. I plan on deferring but it is a required course for me to graduate (I plan on graduating this summer in june). What is going to happen if I defer it? Will I not graduate this June and will have to wait to write the final exam for this course? When I mean graduate I mean attending convocation for clarification .

If you defer that exam, you will not be allowed to graduate (or attend convocation) in June. You will have to wait until November.

Not as ridiculous as thinking that an established post secondary institute would allow a student to graduate prior to completing all of the required courses for their degree.
There's no need to be sarcastic about it, he was just asking a question. >__> If you look at his join date it's pretty obvious that he's just forgotten to change his year info since he joined the site in first year, four years ago.

If you properly read my comment, i was fully aware that he was graduating this year. He even stated that in his post so yes I did catch that. What you seem to not have paid attention to is that I was speaking in hyperbole by using an example of a first year student (NOT THE OP) being allowed to graduate in their first year.
