Convocation FAQs

Congratulations Class of 2020!

Can I rent a gown and hood? When can I have graduation photos taken?

All lending of gowns and hoods for photography purposes has been postponed until further notice due to the increased social distancing measures taken by the University to protect our NU community from the spread of COVID-19.

All on campus graduation photography has also been postponed. The University plans to offer on campus graduation photography when it is deemed safe to do so.

Can I still purchase a degree frame?

Yes, currently you can still order a degree frame to display your Nipissing University degree. However, please understand that this service may take several weeks due to COVID-19 restrictions.

Proceeds from sales are used to support on-going student programs, scholarships, and services through NUSA.

To order your frame, simply fill out the online order form. All frames include domestic shipping within Canada and HST. If the order is shipping outside Canada or you have questions regarding your order please email alumni@nipissingu.ca

When will the in-person convocation for the class of 2020 take place?

The virtual convocation celebration is not intended to replace the in-person ceremony. When it is safe to do so, we will be inviting the Class of 2020 back to campus to formally cross the stage.
