What:
CEOAS Graduation Celebration

When:
Friday, June 13th, 2025, 4 to 6 p.m.
- Participating graduates need to arrive and check in by 3:30 p.m. This is necessary so we know who is present so we can call your name.

- On this day parking on campus should be free/un-monitored for A, B, and C lots.
Who:
CEOAS Graduates 😊
- Undergraduates who graduated, or will be graduating, Summer 2024-Summer 2025

What to expect:
Undergraduate Students
You will line up by major group, and staff will quickly get you into alpha order, (that is why you need to RSVP) you will have your name called and will come to the stage to receive a handshake and a gift. Afterwards you can mingle and enjoy catered snacks and maybe gather for some pictures with our college background provided at the event.
Tell us ‘What’s Next?’ for you. If you already know then go ahead and fill out this brief survey, otherwise there will be a QR code to do it at the event after you’ve check in and are waiting for the ceremony to start. You can also fill it out at a later time once you know your “next” after graduating from OSU.”
Graduate Students
Your name and thesis/dissertation title will be read as you make your way to the stage. Please make sure you RSVP so we know you will attend and will have your information in the program as well as being read aloud at the event.
Note for Ecampus Students:
CEOAS will offer a travel award for Ecampus students, to cover a portion of your travel costs to Corvallis to participate in the CEOAS Graduation Celebration and University commencement ceremonies. Your distance of travel from your residence (the residence listed with OSU) must be greater than 30 miles from campus. Monetary amounts are determined on a sliding scale ($50-$400) based on your distance of travel to campus. Please fill out the application. The deadline to apply is Friday, June 6, 2025. Once we have verified your attendance at the on-campus event(s) a reimbursement check will be sent to you. Please be sure to include a mailing address that you will be receiving mail at AFTER the commencement ceremonies.
