Commencement Information

Virtual Commencement Ceremony | Wednesday, July 22, 2020 | 7 p.m.
Join the livestream at: dunwoody.edu/commencement

Congratulations on your upcoming graduation from Dunwoody College! We look forward to celebrating with you and your family.

Due to the current health pandemic, Dunwoody has made the difficult decision to switch our regular Commencement Exercises to a virtual format. The decision came after recent guidance from the Minnesota Governor’s Office instructed schools to not hold in-person events, and to instead transition them to online-only events. We know this decision is in the best interest of our students, employees, and guests.

The Virtual Commencement will be pre-recorded and posted live at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, July 22. Please share the information and link with your family and friends. After this viewing, a link to the ceremony will be available on the commencement page on our website for anyone not able to attend the virtual event.

A formal invitation will be mailed to homes, followed by a Commencement package in mid-summer.

We would like to extend an invitation for you to participate in next year’s Commencement Exercises as well. Please check back here in March 2021 for more information on how you can participate in this ceremony.

Graduates should also continue to watch your Dunwoody email for announcements.

For questions about Commencement, contact the Registrar’s Office at 612-381-3360 or registrar@dunwoody.edu.

• Diploma

Public Posting of Information
