Commencement Update

At the request of our graduates, the University of Montana Western will host a fall commencement ceremony in addition to a spring virtual ceremony to recognize their achievement. Details regarding the fall ceremony will be sent out over the summer as the University weighs recommendations regarding COVID-19 and the ability to assemble together in future months. Please check your university email for more information.

Pass/No Pass Grading Option Announcement

By recommendation of the Faculty Senate and approval from administration, the University of Montana Western will implement a “Pass/No Pass” grading scheme as an alternative to traditional grading for Block 7 and 8, as well as full and half stringers occurring in the remainder of the spring 2020 semester. This change has been made in light of the challenging remote instruction environment caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and to help reduce stress to our students.
