Change Proposed Graduation Date

Please don't push back graduation. We been through so much already.

My sister Daisy is getting ready to start her 5th semester at Carrington in the RN program. I have seen her put in the work to pass her classes. I don’t think it is fair that her and her class are being told that their graduation date is now pushed out to January 1st when they were promised that the current pandemic would not affect their graduation date. I know that her class is willing and eager to do all that they can to graduate in December as they planned when they signed up at Carrington.

As a parent , I’m appealing to the university to please consider this petition. It would be sad to see these hard working students to still be in school the Christmas break and immediately after and be deprived of the Dec. 18 graduation they were excitedly looking forward to.

Signing in support of all the 5th semester nursing students, but particularly my sister Jenny who I know has made huge sacrifices along with the countless who are affected by the pandemic.

This petition is not a call for rebellion towards respected school authority but a legitimate desire for a kind and thoughtful reconsideration of the change of schedule for the graduation. As a parent, any extra days to prolong school entails additional cost, especially that my daughter is an out-of-state resident. We will be forced to rent an extra month for board, not to mention extra expenses together with that. Should she graduate on December 18, she will not have to fly in and out of Arizona after the Christmas holiday. That by itself is an unnecessary use of financial resources. The pandemic already cost us all too much. As intelligent adults, I pray wisdom takes over in this decision-making to complete the education of our children without wasting more of our time and resources.

I am family of Victoria Newton. This COVID-19 pandemic is an unfortunate and unexpected circumstance that everyone has had to survive through. These students and professors/staff have done everything the school has asked of them. They have not missed any school time during this period, so to have their future pushed back even further for unknown reasons is unfair to everyone involved. I ask to have this petition strongly considered.

Signing on behalf of my sister Tisha Degamo. She’s worked too hard to get her grad date pushed back

I’m sorry sissy! Hope this helps.

I have already sent an email that addressed my concerns.

Please don’t punish me or my future

I have been waiting way too long to be pushed back again, why do I have to pay the price for something that isn't my fault and had no control over. This whole pushed back graduation date is extremely unfair to all of us students

I, Tisha Degamo, do not agree with the proposed graduation date of 1/1/21 and am willing to do whatever it takes and sacrifice my semester break, to graduate on time.
