How do you I show a degree not granted over financial issues?

by Victor
(Somewhere)

On my resume, how do I show that I have completed the academic requirements for a degree that was not granted over past-due financial obligations to the university?


Answer: Hi Victor... I think you should just list the degree as pending, with all coursework completed, and then let the recruiter bring it up in an interview, at which time I think you should be honest about the reason the degree is pending.

Are you planning to pay the bill and get your degree at some point... like when you get a job? If so, you can say that. If you plan on leaving it defaulted, then I think that will raise red flags.
