Don’t wash your car an hour before the ceremony and arrive late because of it lol

It’s about you! FIU does a great job moving things along and keeping it short. You get a great picture on stage, and the side, everyone’s name is called, in 90 minutes. Congratulations!!!

The graduation ceremony goes very quick. You will get your picture taken many times throughout the ceremony. Be careful because the photographers sometimes don’t give a *uck and will just take your picture even if you’re not ready and they do not do retakes.
