We know you look forward to celebrating your graduate on the day of convocation; however, in order to have an amazing ceremony experience, we ask that you prepare to say “see you later” around 2 p.m. Graduates are required to line up, process in, and sit separately from their families for the ceremony.
Parking downtown is first-come, first-served in the many city garages and streets. Please be prepared to walk to the venue from your car. There is a drop off outside the venue.
We ask that families and friends attending the ceremony be at the venue and seated by 3:30 p.m. Convocation day photos may be taken back at Thunderbird HQ or outside the venue after convocation. The ceremony will end approximately at 5:45 p.m.
