Commencement

To attend Commencement, each guest needs a ticket. Children under three years of age do not require a ticket unless they will be using a separate seat.

Tickets are not for sale; they are distributed to graduates by the Registrar's office through email. Each graduate is allotted a specific number of tickets based on capacity for individual ceremonies.

If extra tickets become available, they will be distributed through a first-come, first-served ticket pool.

Graduates can order announcements, caps and gowns, TWU class rings, diploma frames and doctoral academic regalia through Herff Jones or the TWU bookstore.
