Cypress College 54th Commencement on Friday, May 21, 2021 at 5 p.m. on virtual platforms

Dear Charger,

We're reaching out to our summer and fall 2020 graduates, and spring 2021 graduate candidates, who make up the Cypress College Class of 2021, to provide important commencement information. Graduation is a momentous occasion and participating in the commencement ceremony is a privilege you have earned through your hard work and dedication to pursuing your educational goals.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, we have decided to host a virtual, livestreamed commencement ceremony on Friday, May 21, 2021, to honor your accomplishments. Although we understand this may be disappointing to you, we assure you that we have a meaningful and high-energy celebration planned. In addition, all students will be offered the opportunity to participate in a future live commencement the college offers.

Cap, Gown, and Tassel Package Orders

Something that has not changed is the opportunity to purchase and wear academic regalia in celebration of this occasion.

Cap, gown, and tassel packages can be purchased for $18 plus shipping and tax. Honor cords are available for an additional $10.

Purchase Cap & Gown Package

Please note: all sales are final, and shipping cannot be refunded. When submitting your order, please select "UPS Ground" for the shipping method.

Students graduating with High Honors or Honors who would like to purchase an honor cord should refer to the following when determining which color to purchase:

High Honors (gold cord) is based on an overall grade point average of 3.75–4.00 during your entire college career.
Honors (silver cord) is based on an overall grade point average of 3.30–3.74 during your entire college career.

On-Campus Photo Opportunity & Commencement Package Pick-Up

Students purchasing a cap, gown, and tassel package will be able to schedule a free photo opportunity wearing their academic regalia in front of a Cypress College media wall with Grad Images April 13-15, 2021. An email with information about scheduling this photo appointment will be sent after cap and gown orders are submitted. We recommend that students place their cap and gown orders by Monday, April 5, in order to receive their regalia in time for the on-campus photo opportunity.

All Class of 2021 students are also invited to a drive-up commencement package pick-up on April 13-15 to receive exclusive commencement items! More details will be provided in future emails, so please keep an eye out for them.

Personalized Graduate Slide via Marching Order

Next week, you will receive an email with information about how to submit your commencement photo and message through the Marching Order platform in order to participate in the commencement ceremony on Friday, May 21. You must submit a photo and/or message in order to appear and have your name called during the ceremony by Friday, May 7.
