Re: Invitation to Provide Input on Virtual Commencement
Last week, Caltech president Thomas F. Rosenbaum announced that Caltech will hold a virtual commencement on Friday, June 11, 2021, coupled with plans for an in-person celebration for both the 2020 and 2021 graduates later in 2021. Read the full announcement.
Information for graduating students on how to prepare to graduate and how to participate in the virtual commencement on June 11 is forthcoming. When available, those details will be posted on the "Get Ready" page on commencement.caltech.edu, emailed directly to graduating students, and shared through weekly campus communications such as Ion Caltech for Students.
Next Steps:
- If you expect to graduate in June, you are invited to complete this survey by Sunday, March 14, to give input to help shape the virtual commencement. Access.caltech credentials are required to view the survey, but survey submissions are anonymous.
- Later this week, undergraduate and graduate students nearing degree completion will receive a "Declaration of Intent to Graduate" email from the Registrar's Office. Please respond to that email by March 24.
