A list of the Steps to Graduate can be found here: http://www.sdmiramar.edu/campus/graduation/steps-to-graduate.

The College is going to live-streaming the event on the web so that family and friends can watch the ceremony from wherever they are. This should be a great benefit for students who have military family who are deployed, family who are overseas or out of state, or family members who simply cannot make it to campus on the day of the event.  In relation to the live-stream, we will also be providing an alternate viewing location on campus on the day of Commencement so that family members can watch the ceremony in a more relaxed atmosphere.

Check back here for a link to the live stream and for any other updated Commencement information.
