Commencement

The Undergraduate ceremony is a ticketed event and the complimentary tickets can be reserved by the undergraduate the week of Commencement through the Converse Box Office. Tickets can be reserved once the undergraduate’s account(s) are cleared. These tickets can be reserved until Friday, May 19, 2023 at noon.

Tickets are not required for the Graduate ceremony.

Currently, six (6) complimentary tickets will be available to each graduating senior. If this number changes due to restrictions or limits, you will be notified via your Converse email. There will be no tickets for purchase and at this time, the University cannot commit to any additional tickets. The undergraduate can contact the Box Office and request to be placed on a waiting list for up to 5 additional tickets.

If you need special arrangements made for guests with disabilities during Commencement, please contact Debbi Thompson, Director of Event Services, at debbi.thompson@converse.edu as soon as possible.
