However, they may start earlier or end later. Please contact the appropriate
department for more information.
Convocation
Convocation ceremonies are held in the second week of June. The date, time, and location of the ceremonies is available online at ufv.ca/convocation.
Students must apply to graduate by April 1. There is a $25 graduation fee, plus a regalia rental fee. Requests to graduate submitted between April 2- May 1 are $75. Regalia should be ordered online prior to the ceremony; see ufv.ca/convocation for details or email convocation@ufv.ca.
Continuing Studies
Classes start throughout the year. They are advertised in the Continuing Studies program booklet, which is delivered to homes in the
university region in late August for the Fall semester and early January for the Winter semester. Registration dates are given in the Continuing Studies booklet.
