Your degree can only be dated for the current or previous semester. In no case can your degree be dated earlier than 6 months prior to award. Even if you have satisfied your educational and experience requirements several years ago, we can only allow a window of 1 semester or a maximum of 6 months. Our diplomas indicate the award date, not the date you may have satisfied the requirement.
