School of Nursing Graduation

Graduates will line up in the Alumni Memorial University Center (AMUC) Theater. Lineup report time is 12:15 p.m. 

Each graduate will be allotted seven (7) guest tickets. Graduating students will not need a ticket. 

In mid-June you will receive an invitation to use Tassel, the university's graduation planning platform, to manage your graduation activities, including confirming your participation in the ceremony, providing a phonetic pronunciation of your name, and securing your guest tickets. 

Ticket quantity is determined by venue capacity and number of graduates.

If you do need extra tickets, please consult with your peers to find out if anyone may not be participating in the ceremony or will not be using all their tickets.
