Overview of Academic Awards and Program Certificate Ceremonies

Academic Award Ceremony

The College hosts the Academic Awards Ceremony to honor one outstanding student from each program area. Students are selected for this honor based on GPA, attendance, class participation and other factors such as tutoring peers in subject area, above-and-beyond efforts in classroom or clinical sites, etc. Students selected for this award will be given a medallion to wear at commencement.

Certificate Ceremony

The Student Services division also hosts a Certificate Ceremony twice a year to honor students who have completed Certificate Programs and those on the President's List and Dean's List.
