Students who complete their programs in the Fall or Winter terms are invited to participate in the June convocation ceremonies. Those finishing in the Summer term typically attend in November. Regional campus schedules may differ. Only students with “graduated” status are eligible to RSVP and attend. Graduation status can be confirmed through WebAdvisor or by contacting records@fanshawec.ca. Students not yet in “graduated” status should ensure they have submitted an Intent to Graduate form for review.
Eligible students will receive an email about six weeks before the ceremony with a link to RSVP through Tassel. Monitor your personal email inbox, including spam/junk folders. RSVP is required to attend. If you don’t receive an invite, email convocation@fanshawec.ca with your student number. Guest ticket info is included in your confirmation. Tickets can be downloaded or emailed from Tassel.
Graduates must wear Fanshawe’s official red gown and stole to participate in convocation. Gowns are rented through Gaspard and are tailored to each graduate’s size. The rental ensures a consistent look, better fit, and hygiene, as gowns are professionally cleaned before use.
Graduates receive their printed credentials after the ceremony has finished. Non-attendees can pick up their credentials in the Office of the Registrar, room E1012, two weeks after the ceremony. Printed credentials are held for one year following convocation. After one year, unclaimed credentials are destroyed.
Flowers can be bought on-site or pre-ordered via The Commencement Group.
Official Fanshawe merch is available at the venue or online.
Studio Graduation photos are taken by Studio Nostalgia at the London campus. Details at mygradphotosfanshawe.com.
Convocation Ceremonial photos are taken by GradImages and can be viewed at www.gradimages.ca.
You can shop online from our selection of diploma frames and other convocation gift items. You can also visit us at the venue.
Graduates needing accessibility accommodations should email convocation@fanshawec.ca in advance.
