    This year we are utilizing a new software system called Tassel (formerly Marching Order) which will allow your name to be put up on the screen with any additional honors that you’ve received. To that end, you MUST register through Marching Order by 4/1/25. If you do not register through this site, you will not be permitted to walk at commencement. This registration link will be sent to your email.

  • Tickets

    Each graduate will receive three guest tickets to start. Tickets will be distributed through Marching Order. If you need more than 3 tickets, there is a question in the registration form asking you to let us know how many extra you need. We will award additional tickets as we are able closer to the ceremony.
