Should I just lie and tell them I am not completing my degree? Is anyone else having this kind of problem???
I wouldn't lie to the company... it's not morally correct.
Perhaps the kinds of positions you are applying for are the wrong types for summer only employment(e.g. secretarial, bank...) I, as a company, would not want to hire, train, process benefits for an employee that I know will be jetting back to school in a matter of months.

Try going through a temp agency. The pay is alright, but the freedom is great!

Best of luck

Faced with the Divine, I was asked; "What one gift do you seek?"
I answered ever so meekly; "I seek Honor, Truth, Integrity, and Wisdom, yet those are four. How am I to choose?"
The answer came as a pounding whisper; "The four you seek are but one. I grant thee Compassion; for without it the four make none."
