Prepare for the Graduation Ceremony
The band has practiced, the mace has been polished. All that is left is the moment when you make your way to the stage to accept your degree.
To know what to expect on the day, find the venue and take a step by step walk-through your ceremony progression, from what to bring to how to find your procession number.
Once you have finished your photo sessions, please remember to return your gown and hood to the UBC Okanagan bookstore.
Preserve this moment
All ceremonies are webcast live, photographed and available to watch online following graduation.
Check the live webcast schedule and view archived ceremonies.
To welcome you to the alumni community, UBC’s Okanagan campus is gifting you with a personalized video clip of you receiving your UBC degree. Following the convocation ceremony, your video clip will be available to share with friends and family from https://ubco.stageclip.com/.
GradImages picture proofs from the procession and your complimentary sitting will be sent to you one week following graduation.
