Commencement- Ceremony Honoring Graduates

Northwest Indian College holds one ceremony per academic year at the end of spring quarter to honor those who have graduated in summer, fall, winter, and expected to graduate in spring quarter. Students must complete an online commencement application. Students must have completed all graduation requirements and had their degree conferred or be currently enrolled in all remaining requirements to be eligible to participate in commencement. Participation in commencement requires a $25.00 fee. An additional $25 fee will be applied if the commencement gown is not returned to NWIC.

Please note: participation in the ceremony does not denote completion of graduation requirements. Degrees and certificates are not awarded or recorded until all credit requirements are completed. Official degrees are posted to the transcript and a diploma is printed once the final credits are completed and verified by the Registrar. The official transcript is the official document of program and course completion.
