Dallas College awards degrees and certificates every Fall, Spring and Summer semester. Each spring, a graduation ceremony is held to honor the achievements of completed and potential graduates.
We have seven schools of instruction and will be hosting a graduation ceremony for each school. The school your program of study or transfer program is in will determine which graduation ceremony you will attend.

Academic Advising.
