School Recognition Ceremonies
Before University Commencement, each of our colleges hosts special recognition ceremonies for its graduates. It is at these school ceremonies that students are recognized individually by name. School recognition ceremonies will be held on or near the New School campus May 14, 15, and 16. We look forward to sharing the exact dates and times for each of these ceremonies by mid-December so that students and families can plan travel accordingly.
