Non-semester-based programs
The vocational and trades programs at UFV try to follow the semester dates. However, they may start earlier or end later. Please contact the appropriate department for more information.
Convocation
Convocation ceremonies are held in the first week of June. The date, time, and location of the ceremonies is available online at ufv.ca/convocation.
Students must apply to graduate by April 1. There is a $25 graduation fee, plus a regalia rental fee. Requests to graduate submitted between April 2- April 22 are $75. Regalia should be ordered online prior to the ceremony; see ufv.ca/convocation for details or email convocation@ufv.ca.
Continuing Education
Classes start throughout the year. They are advertised in the Continuing Education program booklet, which is delivered to homes in the
university region in late August for the Fall semester and early January for the Winter semester. Registration dates are given in the Continuing Education booklet.
A refund is allowed before, but not after, the beginning of the second class. After instruction begins, no refund is permitted for courses of fewer than two sessions.
