I am not sure if I will have obtained my bachelor's degree by September when I plan to teach overseas. I already have a TEFL certification. I am wondering if anyone else has been in this situation. What are some tactful yet accurate ways of giving this information on my CV or applications?

If I do not have my BA in time, I will be three credits shy.

If you don't have plans to get those 3 credits, no tact in the world will get you a work visa if it requires the degree. Otherwise, state something like "expected date of graduation".

takek summer school or overload on classes. Three credits is one class. just finish. On my CV, I have "expected 2011" for my degree, but I'm not changing jobs, just renewed, and it's for an MA, not BA.
