I've been putting a BA on my resume for decades, but I don't have a degree.

... does that work? Because I'm halfway through a degree here, and honestly, if that works...

Probably depends on the field.

I'm a software developer and only my first job ever cared for my degree. My current employer actually never saw my degree/diploma or anything. I just said I had it.

Now, if you'd work at a bank/in finance or have a degree in a more regulated industry, they'll probably check.
