What’s Planned

PNW plans to provide one free professional portrait of each graduate participating on these dates. You will have the opportunity to purchase additional photos and take your own photos. Special photo opportunities will be set up around both campuses, indoor and outdoor, to give you additional locations to commemorate your graduation from PNW. The bookstore will also be open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Be sure to share your photos on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook using the hashtag #PNWGrad, and tag PurdueNorthwest!
