A Recognition of our Spring 2020 Graduates

Spring Semester 2020 turned out to be very different from what anyone expected. Even though we were unable to hold a commencement ceremony as we were looking forward to, we want to take a moment to acknowledge their hard work and achievement. You can find here a video of a Recognition of the Undergraduate Class of 2020 as well as the names of Northwood’s Spring 2020 graduates and award recipients.

Tell Your Graduate Story

We also want to help graduates tell their stories about meaningful memories and experiences while at Northwood. You can see submissions from our students on our Graduate Stories page. Or, if you’re a Class of 2020 Graduate yourself, you can send us your Graduate Story online!
