Each registered participant is permitted two guests at Grad Walk.
The online Commencement ceremony and student-only Grad Walk will both be live-streamed so parents, guardians, families, and friends can share in the celebration, virtually.
If you are bringing guests, please read the guidelines in the Chancellor's latest message. Doctoral students can include their faculty advisor as a guest, however, guests are not allowed to participate in the walk across the stage with the graduate. Graduates and their two invited guests must arrive together. Guests arriving on their own will not be permitted at the venue, no exceptions.
