Commencement is held three times a year at the end of the Spring, Summer and Fall semesters on the Modesto Maidique Campus.
Ceremonies are scheduled after the graduation application period closes to ensure space for as many guests as possible. While the schedule is carefully planned, it may change due to unforeseen circumstances.
