Johnston Community College holds its Commencement twice a year — in May and December — to honor students who have completed their certificate, diploma or degree programs. To participate, students must apply to graduate by the published deadline, then attend the Graduation Fair (or order online) to purchase their regalia (cap & gown), followed by a graduation practice session, and ultimately the ceremony itself. Cap & gown orders can be placed at the campus bookstore or online. For example, a “Cap, Gown and Tassel Bundle” is offered via the JCC Jaguar Bookstore.

Past ceremonies: For instance, during the 2024 Commencement (covering Summer 2023, Fall 2023 and Spring 2024 graduates), over 1,300 credentials were conferred and around 874 students were eligible, with 360 walking across the stage.
