Congratulations 2021 Graduates!

Fall Convocation 2021: announcement

monday september 13, 2021

This fall’s convocation ceremonies at #UofT, Ryerson, Seneca and York will not be in-person. U of T’s virtual ceremony is scheduled for 12pm EST on November 18. Details to follow.

Public health guidelines, and province’s physical distancing & capacity limits for non-instructional spaces and events led to this decision. Convocation is an important milestone in the lives for students, their loved ones and our community. Looking forward to one day celebrating in-person.
