Whats the difference between a January, June or August degree candidate?
Following a grad check, a student’s graduation status is determined. A January degree candidate is a student who completes all requirements for the bachelor’s degree in the fall; thus, completing work in December (the end of the fall semester). Grades are officially due in January; thus, a January candidate. Such a student can participate in commencement exercises in May, after the January completion date. It is not possible to participate in commencement exercises in May of the previous calendar year.
