Just say you had a medical condition that required you to take part-time courses, they will not ask you for proof and they won't ask you to go further into detail about the condition.
Interesting thought, however, i dont want to lie. Rather, I'd just try to avoid it my graduation etc. being brought up entirely, hence the spring 19 grad date.
Also, the school would know, and they could easily see if I had a medical leave on file.
Pretty unlikely, they care about sins of omission (didn't disclose a felony) or commission (lying about GPA). Since you didn't lie no one will care.
do you think guys will ask about it at superdays etc.?
