Commencement Ceremony

Rowan College of South Jersey's Gloucester Campus Commencement Ceremony will be held on Thursday, May 14, 2020 at 11:00am on the College Plaza.  ​

Graduation is the completion of all degree requirements as recorded on the official transcript. Commencement is the ceremony held in May each year that celebrates the completion of a degree. Participation in the commencement ceremony does not imply official graduation. Students must apply to graduate​ on the Portal. 


Students wishing to apply for graduation can do so by logging into the RCSJ Portal and selecting “Self-Serve.” Once there, select the tab at the top of the page entitled, “Student” and select “Student Records” from the choices provided. From there, select the link labeled, “Apply to Graduate” and complete the online form.

​

Students planning to participate in the commencement ceremony should order regalia through the bookstore by ​March 30th and plan to attend rehearsal​ on Wednesday, May 13 at 9:30am.

Prohibited Items

RCSJ prohibits items that obstruct the view of others during the Commencement​ ceremony. These items include umbrellas and balloons.  
As a safety precaution, large bags are not permitted and College Safety and Security reserves the right to prohibit any individual items deemed dangerous in the Commencement venue. 


​​News & Announcements

Be sure to check the commencement ​website for news and updates on the ceremony. For example, information concerning ceremony changes because of inclement weather will be announced on the website.​​

Commencement 2020 Inclement Weather Plan- Gloucester Campus 

If there is inclement weather on May 14, the Gloucester Commencement will be moved to May 15 at 11:00am. If there is still inclement weather on May 15, the Commencement ceremony will be split into two ceremonies and they will be held in the Physical Education Center Gymnasium. The split ceremonies will be held at 11:00am and 4:00pm and will be sorted by academic division. Student arrival times and lineup locations will be announced at the Grad Breakfast. It is very important that you check the webpage for updates.
Each student will be given two rain tickets when they pick up their cap and gown to be used if the event is moved indoors due to inclement weather. Admission to the gymnasium will be by RAIN ticket only, due to limited seating capacity — two tickets per graduate. When the gymnasium has reached its capacity, your guests may be diverted, for their own safety, to an alternate viewing area on RCSJ Gloucester’s campus.​
