Commencement is the pinnacle of academic success — representing years of hard work, dedication and commitment.
The University will celebrate its Spring 2025 graduates with a Commencement ceremony on May 17, 2025, on the Campus Mall.
The Commencement ceremony will be livestreamed on KUOZ’s YouTube Channel so that family and friends who cannot attend will be able to view the ceremony. This link will be shared via university social media once it becomes available the morning of the ceremony.
