Prepare for graduation at Senior Salute
There's more to commencement than just a cap and gown. Senior Salute will have all the necessary information regarding Commencement available at one time and in one place. This should take no more than 15-20 minutes.
Note: If you are on an off-campus program for spring semester or if you finished your requirements in December, please give the registrar’s office your spring address. The Senior Salute information will be sent to you by the end of March. You may be measured for your cap and gown before you leave campus in December by stopping in to the Office of Conferences and Campus Events.
