All graduate students -

There is a new policy in place for Graduate Commencement Participation. 

Graduate students who have registered for courses which, if successfully completed, will allow them to graduate by the end of the subsequent summer terms, are eligible to participate in the May commencement ceremony of that calendar year. Exceptions to this policy must be approved by the applicable graduate program directors.

To have your name appear in the commencement program, you must complete the Commencement Participation Application and have it to the Office of the Registrar no later than 5:00 p.m. on April 10, 2019. No student may participate in multiple commencement ceremonies for the same degree.

For more information, please visit www.longwood.edu/registrar/graduation-requirements/ to review the policy and requirements. If you meet the requirements to participate under the old policy and the new policy makes you ineligible, please contact your Graduate Program Director to determine if an exception is possible.
