Questions & Answers

https://oakhallcg.com/pages/wilsonu
- How many guests can I bring?
Space is limited, so sign-up as soon as possible. Guests MAY be limited if capacity is reached.
- Will I get my actual certificate or diploma at the commencement ceremony?
No. Degree students will be mailed their diplomas after their degree is conferred and the proper form is filled out. Certificate students may request that a copy be mailed to them. All certificate students will get a digital certificate upon completion.
- I already received my certificate/degree in the mail. Can I still walk in the ceremony if I have not already participated in a previous Wilson U commencement?
Yes.
- I will be finishing in the fall 2026 semester, can I still walk in the commencement ceremony?
It depends. If you will have 6 credits left to complete by September, then you may participate in the commencement ceremony. However, you will not get your certificate or degree until you complete all of your requirements with no less than a 2.0 overall GPA. The Registrar will evaluate everyone that signs up for commencement to confirm eligibility to participate.
