Guests require tickets to attend the Commencement Exercises as
well as the Doctoral Hooding Ceremonies. The graduate's cap and
gown will serve to admit him/her to the ceremony.
Due to the large number of graduates eligible to participate in
this year’s ceremony, each graduate will be receiving four (4)
seating tickets to the Commencement Exercises on Sunday, May 18,
2008 on the Great Lawn.
If any additional tickets become available, students may request
these tickets at Academic Attire Distribution.
Please note that no requests for tickets will be taken at any
time.
Children under the age of two years do not require a ticket,
however, they must sit on an adult's lap. Tickets are also required
for the Baccalaureate Mass.
