Your options are limited NOW because you can’t afford legal advise specific to this situation and if you tell the school (before graudating or after) then they can revoke your admission and kick you out.

Also- there have been high profile stories (Harvard Business School comes to mind) of people graduating or near-graduation who were discovered to have false applications. They not only had their degree revoked (or kicked out), some have been fined or sued. And while your advisor might seem like a nice guy, you don’t know that he won’t immediately go tell your dean.

You can try to get a medical letter, but even that isn’t a 100% certainty. The fact of the matter is, there is no “squaring the matter” with your school. At no point will they be okay with it.
