Graduation

Spring 2013 Graduation Ceremony

Graduation is an exciting time for the Seminole State community, and we're proud to recognize and celebrate the accomplishments of our students. The Commencement Ceremony is held each fall and spring.

Seminole State's graduation ceremony will be held at the UCF Arena on the University of Central Florida (UCF) Main Campus in Orlando. Graduates will receive the following benefits:

• Free parking in garages near the UCF Arena for them and their guests
• 10 or more graduation tickets, so they can invite more of their family and friends to the ceremony
• Complimentary caps and gowns
• Graduation speaker Stan Van Gundy, former Orlando Magic coach

All graduates must plan to arrive at the UCF Arena at least 90 minutes before the processional begins. Faculty and staff will direct graduates to enter through the side entrance of the arena to wait before the ceremony.
