Graduation 2026
Summer Graduation 2026 Information Available Now!
On July 6, 2026, Visions mailed all potential grads a grad-letter with graduation information, including ticket information, a graduation checklist, and Graduation FAQs. To make accessing this information easier, we have created a Graduation Information page to act as an online reference for all your graduation questions.
Graduates are responsible for reading and understanding this information prior to Grad Checkout and Graduation.
Grad Checkout Coming in August!
We have scheduled a Summer Grad Checkout for students to get cleared for graduation, get caps and gowns, pick up tickets, and return outstanding materials. All graduates must complete a grad checkout to be eligible to walk in our ceremony.
