Commencement Information

The University of the Incarnate Word does not hold a rehearsal for Commencement. Refer to the Graduation Instructional Letter (available below and sent by email in mid-October for December and August candidates and mid-March for May candidates) for complete information related to Graduation and the Commencement ceremonies.

The Graduation Finale is our final opportunity to share the excitement of your graduation in a relaxed and comfortable environment. The Finale is an unscripted event where you may take care of your final business with the University before final exams and Commencement. You may also pick up your Commencment tickets, cap and gown and other items of interest as well. You will have the opportunity to visit with representatives from several offices as well as enjoy refreshments with your classmates.
