University-wide ceremonies are held each semester (December and May) to honor graduates. The university also holds a doctoral hooding ceremony in May. Details on University Commencement ceremonies can be found here.
Parking Information
Please be aware that parking is extremely limited during the weekend of Commencement and even on the weekdays leading up. There will be road closures on campus, particularly on South Road between Country Club Road and Columbia Street. For a list of parking options, please see the university’s Commencement Parking page.
Accessibility
Commencement event officials do not supply disability parking permits. However, for those with disability plates or hang cards, you may park in the School of Government lot and ride the golf cart shuttle to the front of Carmichael Arena. No guests will be able to drop-off immediately in front of Carmichael Arena as the entrance gates will be closed as pedestrians will be entering through this area.
Another option is to drop-off on South Road near the driveway or bus pullout. The doors will open at noon for our 1:00 PM ceremony. We have a limited number of wheelchairs at the main entrance of Carmichael. Please note that these cannot go outside to Carmichael to meet at drop-off.
