Signed BB FT, Will Offer Get Rescinded for Delayed Graduation?
I completed a summer internship at a BB and received/signed an offer for FT.
After speaking with my college, I'm missing one distribution requirement course that will have to be completed during the summer (3-week course that ends before FT start date). I am still allowed to walk for graduation, but my diploma will be set for August. The school said it will write a letter indicating that I have all the necessary courses to graduate, but that my official diploma will be granted at the end of summer.
Will this affect my FT offer? Will they rescind?
It doesn't affect your start date, and you haven't deliberately or materially misrepresented your qualifications. They won't care.
Thank you for the quick reply, would you say the best course of action is to call HR and inform them of this immediately. I'm just worried that they will ask for my diploma before the start date and I won't have it.
If they're willing to write you a letter and you'll have the official transcript to show you have the degree, why would they want the diploma?
You could reach out to cover your bases, but if everything goes through before your start date, you should be good.
No absolutely do not call. Just forget about it. If they ask, which I will bet everything they won’t, you have a letter.
In this exact same situation due to now doing an exchange with forces me to graduate with the next class. I emailed my bank and it went through the rungs of people and there is no issue, i expect the same with you.
TL;DR In similar situation, shouldn't be an issue!
Thanks, that's very reassuring
If it doesn't affect your start date at all then don't mention it
Thank you. It really shouldn't, because I'll be completely done with school, just without the official paper, not sure if a big bank would care. My thought is that it seems better for them to find out through me than through a background check, doesn't it?
Nope and if they do find out all you have to say is "I finished classes 3 weeks before my start date and walked with my graduating class in May." Done.
