Although a virtual ceremony, the star made the graduating students realize that the ultimate aim is to achieve what they wanted and not the acknowledgment that they would be getting afterward. She recalled the moment when she was a part of the Wizards of Waverly Place at the age of 14 or 15 and how her mother was proud of that achievement of Selena. Her words of encouragement reached stronger to the students as they had imagined it to be.
