Special Graduation Celebrations and Ceremonies

Graduating is a major milestone and is a time for celebration. In addition to undergraduate and graduate commencement ceremonies, organizations and departments across campus hold special ceremonies on behalf of Northern Illinois University.  

Special graduation celebrations and ceremonies honor the many different communities, cultures, traditions, involvement and achievements of our graduating students. 

Graduating students are invited to participate in the various special graduation celebrations and ceremonies as unique ways to recognize different aspects of their educational journey.
