  • Order your Regalia
  • Applications for participation in Spring Commencement are due Tuesday, June 1st, 2021.
  • Your graduation registration will be reviewed by the Records Office and your academic department to confirm your anticipated degree completion. Please refer to your Pacific College’s email account for a response. You will receive a confirmation email if your registration is approved.

Commencement Week

Regalia
As a tradition, caps and gowns are worn by all participants at the Commencement ceremony. All regalia comes individually packaged, which will result in creasing and wrinkling. You are welcomed to order your regalia early, so you have time to steam the gown. Ironing is not recommended.

Order your Regalia

Each student will also purchase a tassel for the year in which they graduate.

We encourage that you submit a photo of yourself in your regalia so we can showcase you!

**As a graduate in 2021, you are welcomed to purchase the regalia during your graduation year. You are also welcome to participate in the 2022 graduation ceremony. We hope to have a live ceremony then.

Virtual Commencement Day Etiquette

For the ceremony to be enjoyed by all and for everyone’s safety, we ask you to comply with the following:

  • Be respectful when participating in the chatbox
  • Always keep your microphone on mute.

Photographers

Below are photographers available to you if you are local to Southern California.

Paul Switzer Photography will be available for traditional portraits in your cap and gown. Please find the pricing and ordering form. (can you link the attachment please) You may contact him directly to schedule your consultations.

Nave Photography will be available for private graduation photo sessions. These sessions can be scheduled directly with Nave Photography and can include multiple people.

Diplomas

Since it is impossible to identify with certainty by Commencement day the students who have completed all requirements, degrees are not posted until all final grades are received; then the diploma may be ordered. Diplomas are generally ready 8-10 weeks after graduation. The Registrar will mail your diploma once it is available. To avoid a delay in receiving your diploma, please notify the Registrar of any address changes by submitting the Diploma Request Form and submit to [email protected].

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can students upload their photos and messages after they submit their form?

Yes, if you would like to submit your picture and message at a later time, please email them to [email protected]. The deadline to submit them will be June 1st.

Is it possible for me to for me to walk in next year’s graduation as well?

Yes, we encourage that you participate in both graduations. We realize that Covid-19 has put a damper on our normally scheduled plans, but we are required by the County of San Diego to not host any large in person gatherings. We at Pacific College are doing our absolute best to make sure that this is the best virtual graduation possible.

Why am I uploading a picture of myself and a message if the gradation is virtual?

We are putting together a slideshow that will be displayed during graduation for the announcers to announce your name as each slide goes by.
