Graduation & Commencement
Celebrating your achievements!
Monday, May 16, 2022 | 6:00 P.M. | Fant-Ewing Coliseum (ULM Campus)
A student should meet on a regular basis with their academic advisor to ensure that progress is being made toward the completion of a degree. The academic advisor holds initial responsibility to determine the application of transferable course work to a degree program.
All candidates for graduation must report to the academic advisor during the period specified in the Academic Calendar if they anticipate graduating at the end of the upcoming term to verify that they have satisfied all graduation requirements.
NOTE: DEGREES ARE AWARDED IN THE SAME TERM THEY ARE COMPLETED. LDCC graduates students every official term (summer, fall, and spring) every year. LDCC holds one commencement (graduation) ceremony per year at the end of the spring term. Attendance to commencement ceremony is encouraged for all students who have graduated during the current academic year.
The LDCC Commencement program will be for all Summer 2021, Fall 2021, and Spring 2022 graduates.
