Congratulations, Graduates!
Congratulations, URock grads, from all of us at UMA Rockland!
Please be sure to stop by URock (this week, if possible!) to have your photo taken in front of our special UMA backdrop and to receive your graduation gifts. We'll take a quick photo with you, your spouse, parent, etc and we have a diploma cover available for you to hold up. For our online students and those who may not be able to make it to the Center, UMA has created a similar digital background that can be used for photos and selfies! Be sure to use the hashtag #UMAGrads if you post your photos on social media.
The 2020 and 2021 Virtual Commencements will be broadcast via YouTube on May 8, 2021 with the 2020 Commencement premiering at 10am and the 2021 Commencement premiering at 2pm. Please visit uma.edu/commencement to access the links for the Commencement Events, which will be posted 24 hours in advance.
