The university administration stressed that the test result should be issued and secured from a government-accredited testing center within 3-days prior to the date of the commencement exercises.

The university has issued the update to ensure that graduates and their parents are well-informed and adherent to all protocols related to the conduct of in-person commencement exercises.
