City Colleges graduate,
We can’t wait to celebrate you and your fellow graduates on May 1, 2022, at the Wintrust Arena. Until then, we want to remind you about a few ways to prepare for the big day.
Please note: the deadline to complete the steps below is March 23, 2022.
First up: ordering your cap, gown, and tassel. To participate in the in-person ceremony on May 1st, you must order a cap, gown, and tassel from Herff Jones.
- If you haven’t already, click here → Click ‘Order Now’ under your college → Add the grad package you want to purchase to your cart → Check out.
- Remember, you only need to purchase the cap, gown, and tassel (‘Grad Package 4’ or ‘Graduation Regalia’) to participate in the in-person ceremony. All purchases are non-refundable.
Next up: sharing your ‘CCC the Future’ story. We want to hear what kind of future you can ‘see’ with your new associate degree.
- Click here to submit your ‘CCC the Future’ story, and tell us about what you’ve overcome and your plans for the future.
- Your submission may be shared via video, social media, and more as we prepare to celebrate your graduating class.
