Convocation

The Convocation and Twilight Induction Ceremonies mark the official beginning of the academic year and begins the induction into the UVM community for new students.

The President of the Student Government Association will welcome students to campus, and brief remarks will be given by UVM's President. The ceremony will close with the alma mater performed by the University’s a cappella groups.

At the conclusion of the ceremony the UVM community will walk in procession to the University Green for the Twilight Induction Ceremony, a candlelight ceremony and unique UVM tradition. Join the UVM community for this inspiring occasion as new students are welcomed to UVM.
