Who is eligible to participate in the graduation ceremony?
If you are missing your graduation ceremony because you are attending the Odyssey of the Mind 2008 World Finals, you are invited to participate in the graduation ceremony. Due to time and space restrictions, we cannot invite all students to participate. Graduates are encouraged to wear caps and gowns for this ceremony.
Santa Monica College holds one graduation ceremony each year at the end of the spring term for: • Students who have met the AA degree requirements and have petitioned for graduation during the current spring term or during the previous summer or fall terms. • Students who have petitioned for an AA degree but are missing one class of the degree requirements and are registered for that class for the coming summer session. • Students who have completed Certificate of Achievement requirements and petitioned for the certificate during the current spring term or during the previous summer or fall terms.
