INDOOR GRADUATION
Spring Graduate School Ceremony
Inclement Weather – Undergraduate Ceremony
Each student who is certified for graduation will be given Guest Admit Tickets to distribute to their guests. The Guest Admit Tickets will be issued at the end of Commencement rehearsal. There is a number of limited tickets and this will be announced once there is an account of the number of students graduating for that term.
There is plenty of available seating in the alternate viewing/satellite areas for Commencement. Guest Admit Tickets are NOT required for these locations. All guests without Guest Admit Tickets may view the ceremony at the satellite locations. These satellite areas are the University Student Center and the Murphy Fine Arts Center. A live video stream of the Commencement Exercises will be available for viewing.
All guests must present the Guest Admit Ticket for scanning in order to be admitted into the ceremony. Every person must have a ticket regardless of age (this includes infants & children). Ticket scanning provides the University with quick and accurate attendance figures and controls holders of fraudulent, duplicate, or invalid tickets from entering the ceremony location.
