Once you log in to Marching Order and set a password, you will be able to register to participate in Commencement and review the phonetic pronunciation of your name. Your registration can be submitted without claiming your guest tickets.
- Each registered graduate will receive a Grad Pass. This Grad Pass is required for entry into the ceremony and will be scanned before you cross the stage in order for your name to be read aloud.
- Grad Passes will be made available to all graduates on Monday, May 20. Graduates will also receive an email with ‘Day-of’ Commencement line-up instructions on this date.
- Graduates must take a screenshot AND bring a printed copy of their Grad Pass to the ceremony.
- Each graduate will receive eight (8) guest tickets. Graduates can claim their guest tickets and register their guests by logging in to Marching Order. You have the option to modify all eight (8) guest tickets up until June 12. If you need additional tickets, we recommend checking with other graduates to see if they have tickets they will not be using. The Commencement Office is unable to provide additional tickets to graduates. Children two and under do not require a ticket to Commencement.
- Guest Tickets each have their own unique QR code and are required for entry into Stevens Stadium. Duplicate scans of the same QR code will not be permitted.
