TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — The University of Alabama Supply Store is hosting Graduation Celebration March 6-8 from 9 a.m.-6 p.m. in the Ferguson Center Ballroom.
This event is designed to help May graduates save time by conducting their campus business for graduation at this one-stop shop setting where students can be fitted for caps and gowns, order personalized commencement announcements and order an official UA class ring from Balfour.
Balfour will also offer a variety of diploma frames and students may have their pictures taken in graduation regalia.
To further consolidate the graduation process in a one-stop shop locale, representatives from the Office of Academic Records and University Registrar, Student Financial Services, Loans Receivable and Collections, Student Receivables, the Corolla, the Career Center and Alumni Services will be available each day of the Graduation Celebration to assist students in those respective areas.
Although students may purchase graduation regalia from the University Supply Store any time, April 28 is the deadline for a guarantee rental of the official Alabama Ph.D. regalia. It is recommended that students purchase/order during the March 6-8 event to take full advantage of all the services available to them at that time.
