The New Commencement Format

Due to our growing number of graduates and our desire to make Commencement Day special for all students and their family and friends, the University has split Commencement into two separate days - one for student receiving Masters and Doctoral degrees, and one for student receiving Bachelors degrees.

Each ceremony will continue to be special, including addresses from the Chancellor, special guests, and student speakers.  Additionally, each ceremony will be followed by an informal reception that will allow students to take pictures with their faculty and deans and to introduce family and friends to the special people who have helped then attain their degree.

Please see the tabs to the left of this page. They will answer questions, help with travel, detail the commencement schedule, and let you know who will join you for your special day.

Congratulations to all of our soon-to-be graduates!
