What do I put for degree on a job application if still in high school?

When they ask for any level of education on a job application, you put the school and the year you graduated or expect to graduate. For example, if you graduated from “A High School” last year, you would put “A High School, June 2018”.

Can you finish 60 credits a year?

Yes it’s possible. It also depends on where you are located. In California there’s a lot of community college courses that are online and you can register to more than one community college. From my own experience, 22 credit hours per quarter term was maximum course load for a community college.

What do I put on a resume if my degree is in progress?

If you’re still pursuing a degree, your resume should make clear that your education is in progress. Follow this example: “Master of Business Administration degree candidate; anticipated completion May, 2020” If you have additional certifications, break them out and list them in their own section.

What if you don’t have enough credits to graduate?

If you’re done with high school, or about to be, and were unable to graduate, don’t give up. You can still get a high school diploma whether you dropped out or did not have enough course credits. Or you can pursue your education goals at a community college without one.

Can you put something on your resume that you haven’t started yet?

No. You can’t add anything you’ve done there so it’d be mostly empty.

What do you put on a resume if you are still in college?

What should you include on your resume when you haven’t finished your degree?

  • State the college you’re attending.
  • The degree you’re pursuing.
  • Your area of study.
  • Current GPA (if 3.0 or higher)
  • Include your anticipated graduation date; this is very important if your graduation date is within the next 12 months.

How do you list a bachelor’s degree on a resume?

Just like any other degree, you should list your bachelor’s degree on a resume in a dedicated education section. If you’re fresh out of school, you may want to put the education section above the experience section.
