In order to keep both our graduates and our campus safe, Western will courier each graduate’s diploma to their home address, along with a special package of gifts to welcome them to the Western Alumni family.
Grads, we will be sending your package to the mailing address listed as “Your Current Address” in Student Center as of October 21. Please contact the Office of the Registrar if your address may have changed.
Start watching your mail for this special package from Western in November 2020.
Not that long ago, graduation was off in “some day” land – something you were working towards, dreaming about, maybe even wondered if it would ever come.

You did it and now your day – and the time to celebrate – is here!
One day this will be your yesterday, a stop along the way in your life’s journey. And when that day comes, we hope your thoughts turn to the friends you made and the lessons you learned, both inside and outside the classroom.
The Western community is proud to have stood at your side, from your first steps on campus, through the years, and finally to this day.
Congratulations, Class of 2020. You will forever have a special place in our hearts and in our history.
