Class of 2017
Queens College holds its annual formal Commencement exercises for fall, winter, spring and summer graduates at the end of the spring semester in late May. We sincerely hope that mid-year degree candidates and their families return to the campus and enjoy the pomp and circumstance of a Queens College Commencement.
This year's Commencement Ceremony will be held on Friday, May 26.
The degree conferral date listed on the
