Keeping everyone’s health and safety in mind, we canceled our usual December 2020 ceremony. Students who were eligible to walk in December are invited to take part in the Spring ceremony on May 23, 2021.
Watch our first virtual commencement
The University hosted its inaugural virtual commencement ceremony on Oct. 17 for students who were eligible to graduate in May 2020.
The COVID-19 pandemic and its accompanying restrictions on large gatherings upended Central’s typical commencement ceremony format, but the Blue Devil spirit prevailed and more than 1,100 viewers logged in to watch the virtual ceremony and celebrate. All graduates were acknowledged by name, and guest speaker Kathleen C. Greider, Farmington Superintendent of Schools, and President Zulma R. Toro addressed the Class of 2020.
Graduates had access to the virtual ceremony through their own event link, which allowed them to interact with each other throughout the program.
Watch the ceremony here!

Past Commencement Information
CCSU will host its inaugural virtual commencement ceremony for students who were eligible to graduate in May 2020.
As you know, the COVID-19 pandemic upended our typical commencement celebration. The continued spread of the disease throughout the spring and summer months also derailed our contingency plans to hold an in-person ceremony this fall. I know it has been quite disappointing for all of us, especially our graduates.
But the Blue Devil spirit has prevailed, and the Commencement Committee has been working hard to create a memorable experience for our graduating students, and I am grateful for their efforts.
In keeping with tradition, each participating graduate will be acknowledged by name during the ceremony. One of our outstanding alumni, Farmington Superintendent of Schools Kathleen C. Greider, will address the Class of 2020.
Family, friends, and the CCSU community is invited to watch the ceremony via this link (the virtual waiting room will open at 2:30 p.m. and the ceremony will start promptly at 3 p.m.). Graduates have been provided with their own link which will give them access to interactive tools to chat, react, and congratulate each other throughout the program.
Congratulations to our 2020 grads!
