Note: The College of Graduate Studies contains only the M.S. of cybersecurity and the Office of Undergraduate Studies contains the B.G.S. and B.S.A.S. degrees. If you are not receiving one of those degrees, you are graduating from one of the remaining 12 colleges. If you are unsure of your college of study please contact your academic advisor.
Summer 2021 graduates must register to attend by Friday, August 13. Remember, the Commencement registration is separate from completing the graduation application on OASIS and registration is required to attend a ceremony.
Previous 2020 and Spring 2021 Graduates
Ceremonies are tentatively scheduled for August 21, 6:00 p.m. and August 22, 9:00
a.m., 1:30 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. for previous graduates who did not have a chance to
attend an in-person ceremony. Graduates who wish to attend must register to attend by Friday, July 30 to allow for ample planning and to appropriately assign
and schedule ceremonies. Those who plan on attending should allow for flexibility
as final ceremony assignments will not be announced until early August. Once capacity
has been reached for these ceremonies, we will be unable to accommodate additional
students, so do not delay in submitting your registration.
Health and Safety and Guest Policies
In keeping with university policy, face coverings are not required but are strongly
encouraged for those who have not been fully vaccinated for COVID-19. All ceremonies
are subject to change in the event of changes in guidance from the CDC, public health
experts or university officials to protect the health and safety of our community.
We are pleased to announce that tickets will not be required for guests and there are no limits on how many guests each student may bring; guests are encouraged to arrive early at each ceremony as seating will be available on a first come, first served basis.
