    Is it possible to miss 2 semester a school and still graduate?
    I attended a two year college and I took a semester off due to financial problems and it's possible I might need to take another semester off. I still looking for work and I'm not sure if my parents will pay for my tuition, thanks in advance.

    I would think that as long as you have fulfilled all of the required hours of classes and other requirements for whatever subject it is that you are studying, that you would be able to graduate. If you did not fulfil all of the requirements, then you wouldn't be able to graduate.

    People who graduate, do so because they have successfully completed a program of study as outlined and designed by a learning institution.

    I would suggest that you speak with whoever is assigned to you as an advisor at the college, if you have been assigned such a person.

    Many students will have their education interrupted, it's pretty common. Stay in touch with your adviser and FA counselor because they can help you get back on track when you are ready to return. Not completing a degree in a certain time is not really an issue anymore. I've seen students take 15 years to complete a degree.

    All you have to do is fulfill the number of hours and required classes, I told almost 10 years to get may first degree.
