Graduation military

This event is for student veterans and servicemembers (Active Duty, Guard, Reserve). If you are a military dependent or ROTC Cadet/Midshipmen, please disregard.

The Office of Veterans Affairs and Services will host a special ceremony to award our Penn State student veterans and servicemembers their Military Honor Cord prior to fall commencement. Each student eligible to receive a cord will have the opportunity to receive it on stage from Penn State’s President, Dr. Neeli Bendapudi, at the University Park campus. The brief thirty-minute ceremony will be followed by a social mixer with hors d'oeuvres for students, their families, and other university attendees. We would be honored if you would attend this cost-free, special event.
