This June, we celebrated the achievements of 802 graduates including our international locations—a joyful and inspiring Commencement honoring the incredible diversity, dedication, and determination of our student body.
A total of 434 students walked at the in-person ceremony in Fairfield, with 288 of this year’s graduates were online students. Altogether, MIU awarded 163 bachelor's degrees, 592 master's degrees, 24 MFAs, and 4 doctoral degrees.
Graduates represented 58 countries, including special cohorts from our global campuses: 9 MBA graduates from Ethiopia, 43 BA in Business graduates from South Africa, and 13 PhD graduates in Management from our China campus—7 of whom traveled to walk at the ceremony.
Among this year’s class were 17 undergraduate honor students who earned 3.98 or higher GPA, with 14 earning Summa Cum Laude distinctions and a perfect 4.00 GPA.
The class also ranged widely in life experience—our youngest graduate was 26, and the oldest, 69—a beautiful testament to the lifelong pursuit of knowledge and growth.
A heartfelt thank you to all the faculty and staff who supported our students throughout their educational journey. Your encouragement, care, and commitment make these milestones possible.
