RSDM’s White Coat Ceremony will take place in-person and the event will also be streamed live for those who will not be able to attend. The link for the live stream event is here. The recording of the entire event will be available on the RSDM Youtube channel a few days after the event.

ARRIVAL TIME

Students must check-in at B977 by 2:00PM and pick-up white coat and/or attire. Platform party must arrive no later than 2:30PM.

ATTIRE

Students can drop off their white coat and business/interview/formal attire to wear for the ceremony in The Office of Student Affairs (B-830). Students should not wear suit coats, blazers, or jackets, on the day of the ceremony, as you will be cloaked with your white coat. Please do not bring backpacks, handbags, phones, or other valuables - keep them in your lockers.

PHOTOGRAPHS

The Dental School has arranged for a photographer to take photos during the ceremony. Free digital downloads will be available to all students for a year from the date of the event. This will not include the cost of prints, which will be available for order from the gallery at an additional cost.
