With physical distancing limitations still in place in Ontario due to the COVID-19 pandemic, McMaster’s fall convocation will now be held online.

The celebrations will take place on November 19, 2020 at 12 p.m. (EST).

Graduands will receive an email in their @mcmaster.ca email accounts on November 19 with a link to the online ceremony as well as a Class of 2020 website that includes congratulatory videos, messages, profiles and more.

Specific details will be emailed to graduands in the coming weeks on what to expect on graduation day, information on accessing the graduand portal and how to opt-in to receive a digital diploma.
