Please email your Formal Dress (shirt) Size to admin@betacollege.ca, where you will receive an email that confirms your order and bring it with you on the day, as this includes your unique reference number. Robes must be returned to the main hall after the ceremony.

- Graduates can visit our marketing & alumni team at the entry of the Convocation Hall.

AWARDS CEREMONY
The Ceremony will begin with the procession of the Platform Party and Academic Staff entering the Convocation Hall.
The ceremony will be opened, and the welcome speech and address will be made. If there are Honorary Awards, they will be presented at this time. The Head of the College will then take to the stage to announce the presentation of Graduates.
When the presentations begin, students will be asked to move, row by row, to the marshaling area at the foot of the platform steps. The names of the students to be presented will be called individually. When directed, they should mount the platform and shake hands with the Beta College representative and the Guest of Honour. Any prizes awarded to individual students will be announced at the same time the award is announced and will be presented with the prize on stage.
After receiving, students should proceed across the platform, down the steps, and walk around the procession and back to their original seats.
The Guest of Honour will then make a speech, followed by the Vote of Thanks from a student speaker. There will then be a closing speech, and the processions will leave the Convocation Hall, followed by the new Graduates.
Graduation Dinner will then be served in the designated area.
Food vendors will also be present on campus for those wanting to purchase other eateries.
* Please note that you will not receive your official degree certificate at the ceremony. This will be posted to your valid address available with the college.
