Final Roar 2019

February 8, 2019 - May 14, 2019

Four years (or five or six) really do go by in a flash. You've toughed it out through years of midterms and finals, and late nights on campus finishing group programs. As the final days count down, celebrate all the hard work that's brought you this far!

In leading up to NYIT's 58th Commencement, the Office of Student Engagement and Alumni Relations have put together a calendar full of fun events on and off-campus—everything from a ski trip to a celebratory toast with President Hank Foley, Ph.D.
