Guests with Special Needs:
Our commencement is general admission. The Convocation Center has ample seating space for those in wheelchairs. One family member will be able to sit next to the guest in a wheelchair, while the rest of the family will be able to sit in the rows just in front of this area.
Guests will be responsible for bringing any special equipment (wheelchair, walker, etc.) they may need.
The Convocation Center is an arena where all the seating (except for ADA) is accessed via at least one step.
To aid in understanding the setup of this venue, please consult the West End Stage seating info.
Parking: Permanent spaces are designated for persons with disabilities. If you have a person who would like to be dropped off near the entrances, please let the parking staff know as you enter the drive of the Convocation Center. They will then direct you.
After the ceremony, graduates will exit the Convocation Center by Door #2. Please make your arrangements to reunite with your graduate ahead of time.Â
