Note for International students: If you have family members who wish to attend the graduation ceremony and need letters to support their visa application, please contact Linda Bruen.
Graduating Student Survey 2009: Guest Tickets (and more)...
To help us plan for your graduation ceremony, we ask that each student who has or will be graduating between Autumn 2008 and Autumn 2009 complete a short survey. We ask that every student complete the survey, even if you are not planning to attend the ceremony. This survey will provide us with information about how you want your name to appear in the graduation program and how many guests you wish to bring to the ceremony. The information you enter on the survey will also help us determine how many guest tickets will be available to each student. At the present time, we anticipate we will have 4 guest tickets per graduating student, but we will use the survey results to determine if extra tickets will be available.
We ask that you complete the survey no later than May 15. If you do not complete the survey by that date, we will assume you do NOT plan to attend the ceremony and will reallocate your guest tickets to other students.
