Commencement

The cap and gown costs are covered by the graduation fee. The information WLC needs to order caps and gowns is collected when a student applies for graduation. Students will be notified via email when caps and gowns are available to be picked up.

The Graduation Application, which is available from the Office of the Registrar, is to be filled out and returned to the Business Office (A103) one semester prior to the expected date of graduation. If any changes occur, or if you fail to graduate at the applied time, a new form must be filed. After the application is filed, a degree verification will be sent before the start of the student's final semester, indicating remaining requirements to be completed.
