HOW TO SHOW AN UNFINISHED DEGREE ON YOUR RESUME IF YOU DIDNT GRADUATE COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY EXAMPLE 

Did you attend university but not graduate? Did this video give you an easy method to address your education on your resume?

This was very helpful. Non - Completion has been something of a bugaboo in my life. I greatly appreciate this advice

Thank you! I was just putting the year I began and finished and figured that revealed clearly that I didn’t finish my education.

So simple yet my brain couldn't think of it. Thank you

Hi Kamara, I stumbled upon your video and I would like to ask you about my situation. I have changed my degree three times due to personal reasons, specifically from BEng in Informatics Engineering to A.A.S in Accounting Information Systems and then to BA in English Literature. After dropping out of university, I worked as an IT Support in a local company. However, at the beginning of the pandemic, I got laid off and was unemployed for two years. Currently, I am working as a Data Engineer for a local company. I got this job after becoming the best graduate at a Data Analytics Bootcamp that I attended. I am planning to look for remote jobs at international companies. My question is, do I need to include my unfinished degree in my resume?

Hi Kamara , I have changed degrees 3 times four years in a row (due to very personal reasons that affected my grades) specifically: BComm Accounting & IS, BComm Accounting & Economic, and finally BSC Computer Science and Data Analytics i am not going to study anymore however, i am applying for Cabin Crew at a Local Airline and i am very stressed out about putting together a CV and i don't know if any of these incomplete college degrees are relevant to the job description but should i include them on my resume or nah?

Thank you ❤

Hello. Instead of putting "Coursework in Art and Graphic Design" could you just put "Art and Graphic Design" while leaving out the 'Coursework' part? That way you're keeping it vague and the recruiter can't say that you lied about graduating because you make no mention of a degree?

Thankyou

Hi Ma'am, I haven't finished my degree. I only finish two years. What should I write? My course is BS in Agribusiness Management and the target job that I am applying for is Freelance Content Writer or Copywriting. Please advise, thank you! My experience in real-life jobs is all cashier and sales associate. This is why I am having a hard time making a resume because my educational background and work experience are not relevant to what I am trying to pursue.

Hi Kamara, thanks for the info,

Hello Kamara.I found your video very helpful. I am making an attempt to make a resume and i have a couple of questions if you can help. I attended college for 5 years and never finished. Completely stopped once the pandemic happened, but I had mentally checked out prior to that. I never felt school was for me and had no motivation to go. I only went because I played college football. But I took many classes in Computer Science, Busniness Management, and Accounting. I practiced in a couple of coding languages. Should I include that in a resume under the coursework? I vaguely remeber much from it due to not practicing in years. But i did pick it up pretty well at the time. I'm sure i could learn it again if a job required it. Would i have to provide proof to an employer that i took classes regarding these courses? Even when i insert my courses regarding my Business Management and Accounting courses. I still owe money to my school for my final semester and would not be able to provide transcripts. And even if I could, my gpa would be horrid. I didn't find school hard and I always been able to learn pretty easily. I just had no motivation for it. So if I couldnt do all my work in class, i would do bad in that class. So on my transcript, it will either show me doing pretty well in a class, or completely failing it. So should I still include my coursework? Also i dont have work achievements. But i have atheltic achievements and also have done some volunteer work due to college football. Do I incorpoate that into the resume as well? I do speak Spanish, but not completely fluent. I can speak enough to hold small talk and conversation, but not enough to hold an advanced conversation. I do understand it a lot better than i speak it, but i do come across words that I dont know at times. And I really can't read or write much i Spanish much at all. Should I still include Spanish in my resume? I am currently employed at Sam's Club. Been there for 6 years. I don't have a specific career I'm looking to get into currently. Just looking to find a better job that I could possibly build a career in. And those all require resumes' so I'm trying to figure this out. Your videos are a big help. Thank you for them! I'm sorry for the lengthy post but if you could help that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi Kamra, Thanks for the video

How would you approach conversation about unfurnished degree in an interview setting? I feel like the black and white print showing my lack of follow through could potentially reflect badly. Im writing to you just having failed to finish my dissertation on time, but planning on pursuing digital marketing. The degree was philosophy, so should i even bother adding it?

Que - so i left my college degree(Mechanical) in 3rd year(due to Uninterested in subject and less grade) and joined another college(IT related) and is about to graduate from different college with more than 70% grade . - Do i need to mention my previous college in resume? . Any tips for resume ?

Hello! Thank you for your video. I would like to ask for your advice. If I completed all the courses and practice and technically graduated (I have the worthless graduation diploma as well) but did not do the project required to get a degree (at least this is how it works where I live), what should I write in my resume? The secretary an the University said that what I am is a "graduate without degree" and this is what I thought I should write, I do not wish to trick any potential employer into thinking I have a degree or anything of the sort. I should also mention that it is relevant to my career path that I studied STEM (I studied Maths but work in IT). Thank you for your tips!

Hello ma'am! My name is Nick. I just stumbled upon your video and I'm currently in a similar situation. I have a couple of questions to ask. I'm currently enrolled in a full time master's degree(research mode) at a local university and thinking about quitting for quite a while now. So, I want to apply for jobs before I quit but how do I put in my resume an unfinished master's degree when it's not coursework? And should include milestones that I had achieved during my study? (Ex: conference, publications). I would assume that it's an unfinished degree even though I'm still enrolled in the program because I have the intention of quitting if I successfully land a job. Thanks in advance!

Im a college undergrad and dont have any job experiences yet, what should i put in my resume? 😅

Thanks a lot. i couldnt finish MBA so what should i write? it is critical for director positions hence i wanted to know how to mention it. I have completed all the courses and electivces etc. but its only the gpa which restricted the degree

hi kamara! i wanna ask about my experience graduated bachelor on 2021 and I'm not working until 2023 due to mental health. During that time I was just at my parents' house trying to get up and only in 2024 did I start drawing diligently, hoping to make money to buy a laptop and planning to pursue a career as a developer (IT) or branding marketing. I overthink my next step is to fill out my CV and if I answer the interviewer's question about the 2 year gap, do I answer honestly or what? thankyou
