Frequently Asked Questions
When is the ceremony?
ACC holds commencement ceremonies in May and December. There is no fee for graduation, but students must have a cap and gown for the ceremony.
Where can I purchase a cap and gown?
The ACC Bookstore sells graduation caps, gowns, and invitations. See the commencement webpage for important details. HSE students need a black tassel for the cap. ACC encourages graduates who do not wish to keep their regalia to donate it back to the college — it’s the “green” thing to do! Donated regalia is made available to future graduates who would not otherwise be able to attend graduation.
