Spring 2026 Commencement

Spring 2026 Commencement for graduate and undergraduate students will be held May 7 and 8 in Ritsche Auditorium. Spring ceremony schedules will be announced in April (register by March 31).

Each registered graduate for commencement will be provided six (6) guest tickets at check-in. Need additional tickets?

• Ask at check-in about extra tickets. Sometimes students cancel or don’t show up, which may free up additional tickets.

• Connect with other graduates. If someone isn’t using all of their tickets, they may be willing to share. Graduates are responsible for arranging any ticket exchanges after check-in. Please note: “Will call” tickets are not available.

• Invite extra guests to the livestream room. Guests without tickets can watch the ceremony from a nearby room and join you before and after the event. If space becomes available in the auditorium, we’ll invite guests from the livestream room to fill in just before the ceremony begins.

Live streams of each ceremony will be made available for those who do not have tickets or who cannot join in person.

Bring your loved ones and proudly wear your regalia. We will recognize your accomplishments as you join our community of alumni, which includes more than 135,000 Huskies worldwide.
