What to put for education in DCP application..?

[LovelyLuna]

I'm currently filling out the first part of the application process for the DCP, and in the education section it asks for degree and GPA. However, I'm currently a sophmore in college so I don't have a degree but does it want me to put my intended degree? Or should I put "diploma" because I do have my high school diploma..?
Also for GPA, should I just put my most recent GPA for my previous semester? Thanks.

They want to know what you are studying, how far along you are and your overall GPA to this point.

So should I just leave the degree part blank if I haven't earned a college degree yet?

I believe my dd put in 'theatre' for her degree, as well as what her current GPA is, going into the spring semester. I think 'degree' is probably another way of asking for your major...but I could be wrong.

Thanks for the reply! But the choices for degree are like "associates", "bachelors", "advanced diploma" "diploma" "masters" etc, so it's talking about degrees... So idk what to choose. It's not a required field though so i don't know if I should just leave it blank or what

You don't have a degree yet but you are working towards a degree. They are asking for what degree you are pursuing (ex: Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Arts, etc). There is a place to select the type of degree, concentration/major, and what year in school you are. By saying that you are in your second year, they are aware that you are working towards the degree that you stated.

For your GPA, they are looking for your cumulative GPA not just your GPA from the previous semester.

I'm in the same boat as you. I didn't put anything in the degree field, but I filled in all the other fields for the school section. I landed a WBI and have a phone interview scheduled for two weeks good luck!

By the time I applied for the CP I already had an AA and a BA, so that's what I indicated. Since you do not have anything, leave it blank.
