Graduation 2021

Celebrating our Graduates – Celebrating Success!

On June 10th and June 11th, 2021, we will be holding our graduation ceremony to celebrate our 18th graduating class – the Class of 2021!

In 2021, our graduation ceremony will be a combination of an online and in-person event spread out over two days:

June 10th, 2021, 4 p.m. CEST: Online Graduation Gala
June 11th, 2021, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. CEST: Diploma Handout Ceremonies


The in-person diploma handouts will take place outdoors with strict safety and hygiene regulations in place. Therefore, they will be limited to graduating students only, and unfortunately, we will not be able to welcome families, friends or external guests on our campus for the ceremonies.

The focus of this split format is to offer graduating students a safe way to receive their diplomas in-person. For the diploma handouts on June 11th, the graduating class will be divided into small groups in order to keep our community safe by complying with current corona regulations.

Of course, there might be changes to the in-person format if there are changes in state regulations on events due to the pandemic.

Please keep in mind that everyone who attends the in-person ceremony is also required to attend the mandatory gown distribution on June 9, 2021.

We are very proud of our graduates’ achievements and are looking forward to celebrating with them at this hybrid graduation format.

 

LIVE ONLINE STREAM

Friends and families of the graduates are invited to join the events online. The invitation to access and register for the streaming platform will be sent to the graduating class via email in due course.
