Students with graduation dates between July 1, 2026 to December 31, 2026 are automatically included in the Spring 2027 Virtual Commencement. It is not required to make a submission unless you want to submit a testimonial, submit a photo, or update your address for the graduation gift package.
Enhance Your Graduation Experience: Submitting a photo or testimonial can make your graduation more memorable. Your portrait will be displayed on screen when your name is read, and your testimonial may be featured in the ceremony’s opening segment.
Image guidelines: Submit a clear, head-and-shoulders photo for the graduation ceremony. Images featuring firearms*, military uniforms or emblems, inappropriate content, or profanity on clothing or in the background are not permitted. The photo doesn’t have to be professionally taken, but it should be well-presented. This image can be a picture of yourself, you with your family, etc. in whatever scholastically appropriate way you choose to be recognized. For our graduates that are veterans, we ask you not to include pictures in your official military uniform, as it violates DOD Policy. If you choose not to provide an image you will still be included in the program and ceremony, but we will use an SDI logo in place of your image.
* Images including firearms violate YouTube Platform guidelines.
