Mark Your Calendars – Commencement is Coming!

A group of smiling graduates gathered under an archway of green and yellow balloons.

With spring quarter underway, we’re excited to begin sharing details about our upcoming Commencement celebration.

Commencement is an opportunity for Shoreline students who have completed their studies to celebrate their accomplishments with family, friends, faculty, and staff in a formal ceremony at the end of the school year.

This year’s Commencement ceremony will take place on Thursday, June 18, 2026

  • WHEN: 2:00 p.m.
  • WHERE: Shoreline College Gymnasium (building 3000)

The ceremony will also be live streamed for those who are unable to attend in person.

All students who have fulfilled their graduation requirements between Fall 2025 and Summer 2026 are eligible to participate in the 2026 Commencement Ceremony. Make sure you’re prepared by completing a Graduation Application and signing up to participate in Commencement.

Is there a student or faculty member that should be recognized for their contributions, growth, or positive impact? We invite you to nominate a graduating student for the Shoreline Student Service Award, or a graduating student or faculty member to serve as The Shoreline Commencement speaker. Self-nominations are welcome!

Nominations may be submitted using this form and should be received by April 9, 2026. 

Please remember that Seattle is hosting two FIFA World Cup matches the same week as our Commencement ceremony. If you know of anyone coming from out of town, encourage them to book hotels early and plan for increased traffic throughout the week.  

For more information about the ceremony, please visit the Commencement website. If you have any questions, please e-mail commencement@shoreline.edu.

We hope that you will join us for this exciting event as we honor the Shoreline Class of 2026.
