Information for Graduate Students
Apply for Graduation
Spring and summer graduates must apply for graduation to participate in the ceremony. The February 12 deadline for your name to appear in the program has passed, but the application is still open. Graduates who apply now will be able to walk and have their name read at their ceremony.
Student Speaker
Share your journey to graduation, inspire your graduating class, and emphasize what is important to you while sharing your talents with friends and family.
Graduate students who will be earning their master's, specialist or doctoral degree in the spring or summer 2021 can apply to be the commencement speaker at the spring ceremony.
The February 19, 2021 application deadline has passed.

Rental orders must be placed by 9:59 p.m. Mountain Time on Thursday, April 1, 2021 to ensure delivery before the ceremony and rented orders will be shipped directly to students homes.
