Commencement
Congratulations, graduates! While we are sorry that we cannot celebrate with you in person this year, we are excited to honor your accomplishments. Watch this space for information regarding the UWL commencement celebration webpage.
The University Commencement Ceremony honors the accomplishments of graduate and undergraduate students. In addition to information posted online, students will receive emails regarding commencement details if the student has filed an intent to graduate in WINGS. A single University Commencement Ceremony is held in December. In May, there are two ceremonies.
Graduate students are encouraged to attend a special hooding ceremony prior to commencement. Please note that some graduate programs hold their own hooding ceremonies. If you have any questions about your program's participation in the Graduate Studies event, please contact your program director.
