NY 3rd Dpt Admission Ceremony - In-person vs Remote

Post by iamanapple » Tue May 10, 2022 2:26 am

Hi everyone,

So I am scheduled for the NY 3rd Department June admission ceremony - we are given the option to attend it remotely or in-person. Currently, I'm based in Asia.

For those who have attended an admission ceremony, (i) did you attend it in-person or remotely and (ii) in your opinion, is it worth flying out to attend the ceremony or was it not worthwhile attending the ceremony in-person due to monetary (flights, accommodation..) and time (quarantine back home and length of the ceremony..) costs?

Thanks so much!

IMO, it's not worth it. The ceremony is very quick, and back in 2017 when I did it, everyone did their swearing in at the same time. Once it's over, you can walk up to the podium and take a pic in front of the state seal. Nothing special.
