can I apply if I havent graduated just yet?

hi everyone,


Im in my third year and im graduating pretty soon & I came across a job with an essential requirement of a 2:1 undergraduate degree qualification. I applied, knowing I will graduate soon so will be able to meet this criteria, however im wondering what are my prospects given I havent graduated at the time of applying? or is it okay? has anyone else managed to secure a job that needs a degree before graduating very soon

The Job is a research assistant post at my current university.

Thankyou!

Hi
Yeah you should be able to apply for a job in relation to your degree you are doing with them offering you a potential offer on the understanding that you graduate with the grades that they are looking for . They should hopefully hold the job offer until you know that you have qualified.

The university will know exactly what involve with this.
