Steps to Participate in the SCC General Ceremony
Students who graduated or have applied to graduate between August 2023 and June 2024 are invited to attend the ceremony.
1. Pick up cap and gown
Caps and gowns will be available in the Lair Student Center June 3 through June 12. Students do not need to reserve these in advance. Caps and gowns are not available sooner than June, and they are not mailed to students. If a student is not available to pick up in-person, they may have a family member or friend pick up for them.
There is no cost for caps and gowns.
Honor cords are available for graduates with a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or higher through Winter 2024. These cords will be distributed with caps and gowns and also at the Arena on the day of the ceremony.
Americana cords for military veterans are distributed through the Veterans One-Stop in the Lair Student Center on the main SCC campus.
2. Attending the ceremony
There is no need to sign up or register to attend Commencement. Picking up a cap and gown is the best way for students to inform event coordinators they plan to attend.
There are no “tickets” to the event. Admission for students and all guests is FREE and unlimited.
Student participants are asked to arrive by 2 pm for line-up, wearing their cap and gown.
Bring only what you can carry throughout the ceremony. There is no place to leave personal belongings during the ceremony.
Graduates are expected to participate in the complete ceremony, which should conclude by 4 pm.
