Preparing for Commencement
Jostens Cap/Gown Order – Submit measurements (height and approximate weight) at www.jostens.com to order your cap and gown. You must complete the checkout process until you receive a confirmation number. There is not a charge from Josten’s, the cost is covered by your graduation fee.
Jostens Class Rings, Jewelry & Diploma Frames – Shop at Josten’s online. A Jostens representative will be on campus for custom class rings, invitation orders and diploma frames.
Financial Services – The United States Department of Education requires financial aid exit counseling for any student who has taken out Federal Direct Student Loans while attending school. This is to ensure that you understand your loan responsibilities and to assist you in planning to meet them. If you had any Federal Direct Student Loans while attending Cumberland, please watch your student email account for information on completing your loan exit within the next few weeks. If you should have any questions upon receiving our email please contact our office at finanicialaid@cumberland.edu.
Graduating Students Survey – We take great pride in the accomplishments of our students and alumni, and we want to keep up with you long after you graduate from CU. Please take this survey to share with us your post-graduation plans and share your contact information so we can stay connected with you! Take the survey here.
You will also confirm your information/finalize accounts with the Registrar’s Office, Business Office and Alumni Affairs. Information will be provided to learn about Cumberland graduate school degrees and opportunities.
