It is imperative that students RSVP if they wish to participate in the commencement ceremony.<br><br>UM-Flint holds one ceremony each year in late April or early May and one in December. August graduates are invited to attend either ceremony. Graduates are eligible to attend only one commencement ceremony per degree earned at UM-Flint.
