Floor Seating for Graduates

The ceremony participants are seated on the floor by School, Degree Title (not major), and last name. The College of Arts and Sciences is the largest school, and so that group is split between both sides, but the other schools are on one side only. We seat guests on the opposite side of their graduate so that they can see their face as they cross the stage.

  • ADA seats are not ticketed seats - they are provided upon arrival, utilizing the professional Crowd Security Team to find the best location.

A reminder that there is no waitlist for extra tickets and no extra ticket distribution. We are relying upon the student community to support each other for extra ticket needs, as we must manage within the venue capacity limits. Graduates needing extra tickets, should utilize their friend and academic colleague networks to ask for transferred tickets.
