GRADUATION TICKETS
Graduation tickets will be distributed along with caps & gowns beginning May 13. Click here to see our detailed ticket distribution policy & timeline. 

Seniors can get up to 6 tickets during the initial distribution, but we ask that you only take as many as you know will be put to use. Parents should communicate clearly with graduates to make sure you are on the same page about (1) the number of tickets they should request, and (2) your desired seating section. Graduates will be seated on the stage during the ceremony, and seating in the audience for ticketed guests is first-come, first-served within your assigned section. Seniors will be asked if they would like tickets for Orchestra, Mezzanine, or Balcony, so if parents have a strong preference, students will need to know that before they request tickets in a particular section; section choice is also first-come, first-served. If you are unfamiliar with the venue, we recommend searching ‘Hult Center Seating Map’ in Google Images for reference before choosing a section.

 Lost or stolen tickets cannot be replaced; tickets should be stored in a safe place immediately after pick-up. 

***There is a lottery process for families who want more than 6 tickets for the graduation ceremony. Please fill out the lottery interest form if you know that you need more than 6 tickets.***
