Cast/Convert

I want to convert the date to a certain format but I'm having problems with the correct syntax.

SELECT DISTINCT
Convert or Cast (actualclosingdate , 101) AS 'Closing Date',
Convert or Cast (lmloanrate, 2) AS 'Interest Rate'

Sorry I forgot to explain in more detail. I want my actualclosingdate to be shorten from

2004-05-10 00:00:00.000 to MM/DD/YY. I thought Cast (actualclosingdate , 101) would give me the results but I get an error,
and the Interest Rate to be down to 2 decimals -> Cast (lmloanrate, 2) AS 'Interest Rate'.

Any suggestions?

For date
Code:
SELECT CONVERT(varchar(11), GetDate(), 101) As 'Today'


For decimal
Code:
SELECT Cast('6.5508' As dec(4,2)) As 'Interest Rate'
