Suggestions for Graduates
- All outstanding balances, library fees, fines, etc., must be paid in full in order to participate in the graduation ceremony.
- Each graduate must bring his or her own cap and gown to commencement.
- Traditional seniors are notified in August to pick up their caps and gowns from the Rome Campus bookstore by September 1. After that date, we cannot guarantee them a cap and gown and they may be responsible for procuring their own cap and gown at their expense. Students who miss the September 1 deadline should contact Jeanne McDade in the Office of Student Affairs for further information.
- CAPP students will be sent an email alerting them where and when they can pick up their caps and gowns.
- Ladies should consider wearing flats or low heels because graduates will walk down stairs and hills. Ladies should also leave purses with family members or lock them in the vehicle trunks. |
