Grad 2023 - Guests

Can I bring guests to the ceremony? Is there a guest limit?

Please do! We want you to be able to celebrate with your guests and loved ones. We ask that you register your number of guests, as we are somewhat limited in capacity, to make sure that we can accommodate everyone.

Grad 2023 - Gift Don't Attend

Can I get a graduation gift if I can't attend the Graduate Recognition Ceremony?

We would be happy to send your graduation gift by mail! Please email collegeofbusiness@oregonstate.edu with your request.

Grad 2023 - Diploma Don't Attned

Can I get my diploma at the College of Business Graduate Recognition Ceremony if I can't attend Commencement?

Please contact the Office of the Registrar with any questions about diplomas, as those are handled by the university itself and not the College of Business. The only thing given out at the College of Business Ceremonies will be a gift from the College of Business. Spring graduates who are not attending Commencement will be able to order their diplomas after spring degrees have been conferred. Emails will be sent to graduates’ OSU email accounts with instructions on how to order.

Grad 2023 - Dress Code

What is the dress code? Do I need to wear regalia/cap and gown?

Dress code is Business Professional. Regalia (cap and gown) is optional, but you are welcome to wear it if you prefer.

Grad 2023 - COB Ceremony

If I register for Commencement, can I just come to the College of Business ceremony?

You must register separately for each ceremony that you would like to attend. Registering only for OSU Commencement does not register you for the College of Business Graduate Recognition Ceremony, and registering only for the College of Business Graduate Recognition Ceremony does not register you to walk in Commencement. You are welcome to attend both, but you must register separately for both.
