Summer semesters do not have a Commencement Ceremony. Most students who complete their final requirements for their degree in the summer semester can choose to participate in either the spring semester preceding their summer graduation or the fall semester after their summer graduation. Please note certain graduate programs, such as the Education Specialist (EdS) and the Education Doctorate (EdD), that do not allow for any students to attend the Commencement Ceremony until ALL of their degree requirements are fully met. If a student in one of these programs completes all of their degree requirements in the summer semester, they would not be allowed to choose to attend the Commencement Ceremony in the spring semester preceding their summer graduation. Please check with your advisor if you have any questions. Please visit the Commencement website to RSVP (for the live ceremony or virtual participation) and review all relevant information (venue, parking, caps/gowns, etc.). |
