In the Spotlight

Save the Date!

Northern Virginia Community College's commencement ceremony will take place on Tuesday, May 12 at 7 p.m. at the Patriot Center of George Mason University.

The faculty and staff of the College look forward to the opportunity to recognize our graduates' achievements at the commencement ceremony.

Our talented class of 2009 consists of more than 3,300 NOVA students from more than 100 different countries. We are excited that many of these wonderful students represent first-time college graduates in their families.

The Honorable Sharon Bulova, Chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, will be the guest speaker at this year's graduation.

Commencement is a traditional ceremony where black caps and gowns with hoods displaying NOVA school colors are the required academic regalia for participating graduates. For more specific event details, check out the Commencement Brochure.

Chappell Graduation Images Studio will be on hand to take individual pictures of the graduates as they cross the stage to receive well-wishes from President Templin.

Congratulations NOVA graduates on reaching this point in your education career!
