Congratulations, 2020 Graduates!

Published: May 29, 2020

In celebration and acknowledgement of our 2020 graduates, College of Western Idaho’s first-ever virtual ceremony will go live Friday, June 19! The College’s 11th commencement will recognize degree and certificate graduates as well as GED completers and Workforce Development Apprenticeship graduates with personalized slides, self-paced navigation, messages from College leadership, and social media engagement.

2020 graduates can participate in the virtual ceremony by submitting a photo and quote for their personalized slide. Each graduate should have received an email from noreply@marchingorder.com on behalf of the Registrar Office with directions for submission. Submissions must be received no later than Thursday, June 4, 2020. Graduates who have not received this information are asked to email registrar@cwi.edu.

In addition to the virtual ceremony, faculty, staff, and graduates are invited to attend Grab Fest. This curbside pick-up event, held both July 17 and 18 at the Nampa Campus Micron Education Center, will allow graduates to 'grab' a commemorative program, diploma cover, tassel, and a keepsake. For graduates unable to attend the event, these items will be shipped to them directly.

Visit cwi.edu/graduation or email registrar@cwi.edu to learn more the virtual commencement ceremony.

Congratulations to all our 2020 graduates! You made it!
