Program Award Ceremonies are not graduation ceremonies. The Institute's official graduation ceremony at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center is the official graduation ceremony for all graduates.

Specific information about these awards ceremonies will come directly from your program representatives as it becomes available. These schedules are subject to change at any time.

Note: Honor cords for the School of Nursing Sigma/Upsilon Lambda Chapter can be obtained by cdonati [at] mghihp.edu (contacting Carla Donati) in the School of Nursing.

For directions to on campus events in either 1CW, 2CW, or Building 39, please review our maps & directions.

For directions to the Assembly Row location, please review how to get to Assembly Row.
