Graduation and convocation
If you’re on track to finish your program and graduate with your credential, then congratulations — we’re proud of you.
In order to graduate, you’ll need to complete our Application for Credential form and submit it to Student Services, either in-person or by emailing forms@nic.bc.ca.
Attending your convocation ceremony
Graduating is a big achievement — but convocation is about celebrating all your hard work. It’s also a chance to dress up, grab your grad cap and regalia and enjoy a day of photos, applause and hugs with your supporters.
Apply online below and we'll add a $35 convocation fee to your myNIC student account. You can pay it through self-service or in person at any Student Services office.
Important: We don't accept Visa-Debit cards as a form of payment.
