 Fall Commencement Schedule »

REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED to participate in Commencement.

Registration is required so that graduates can provide updated information that is necessary for planning purposes and ticketing. It is very important that graduates register before registration closes. Late registrations will only be accepted if space is available in their ceremony. Once a ceremony has reached capacity, the ceremony’s registration will close.

Graduates are not eligible to participate in a ceremony if they attended a previous ceremony. The registration system will allow you to register until the ceremony reaches capacity.
