Ceremony Schedule
Graduates will participate in the ceremony associated with their major and college affiliation. The ceremony times have yet to be determined for Fall 2025 and times will be based on graduate registration and participation in each major. After registration closes on November 12, graduate and anticipated guest participation will be reviewed and the times will be determined and announced. Please plan for afternoon ceremonies.
Guest tickets to attend a commencement ceremony are not required for entry at this time. For planning purposes, graduates will be asked to RSVP the number of guests attending as part of the commencement registration process. Registered guest counts will be considered in the planning process as capacity at the venue is limited.

A black cap and a black gown are required to participate in a commencement ceremony. Caps, gowns, tassels, hoods, and more will be available to purchase online through Herff Jones September 1 through October 24 until 8:59 p.m. PST.
