As it’s vital for graduates to be on time for the academic procession onto Nickerson Field, plan to arrive by 12:15 pm at Harry Agganis Way to reach your school/college line-up. Graduates should arrive no later than 12:30 pm at their designated line-up areas; those arriving after that time cannot be guaranteed to walk with their school/college. Latecomers will walk together at the end of the academic procession and sit together as a group on Nickerson. University marshals will not be able to direct latecomers to their proper school/college area.

All guests attending the All-University Commencement on Sunday, May 17, 1 pm, at Nickerson Field will be required to have tickets for entrance to the field.

Only registered graduating students can order tickets for their parents, family members, and guests.
