Commencement - Sunday, May 17, 2009
How many tickets does a graduate receive to attend Commencement?
Each graduate will receive a maximum of five guest tickets. Each graduate who has been approved to graduate by the Office of the Registrar will be able to go on line to order their commencement tickets.
Commencement tickets are for five guests for both the college-wide main commencement, as well as the school commencement. The graduate does not require a ticket. All guests must present a ticket at the gate to gain admittance. Only guests with a ticket will be admitted. There will be no exceptions. Each person requiring a seat will be counted as a ticket, including children.
Seating in the main tent is available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Once seating in the main tent is filled, all ticketed guests will be directed to the overflow tents for viewing.
Log On To Get In
All students who plan to attend commencement must order and reserve tickets online beginning Wednesday, March 11, 2009, through Friday, May 1, 2009.
