What to Bring

Ceremony Attire

Dress appropriately for the occasion—think business casual to semi-formal. You’ll be crossing the stage and taking lots of photos, so wear something you’ll feel confident and comfortable in beneath your gown.

Grad Bash Outfit

After the ceremony, many graduates change into something more casual or party-ready for the Grad Bash. If you'd like to freshen up or switch outfits, you’re welcome to bring a change of clothes.

Comfortable Shoes

You’ll be walking across campus and possibly standing in lines, so we recommend comfortable shoes for the day—even if you plan to change into heels or dress shoes later.

Weather-appropriate Layers

Check the forecast and bring a light jacket or umbrella if needed. Ceremonies may be held outdoors or involve time spent outside.

Bags and Essentials

You’re welcome to bring a small bag with your essentials. A secure storage area will be available on campus for you to store personal items like a change of clothes, extra shoes, or your Grad Kit while you participate in the ceremony.

Don’t Forget Your
  • Graduation confirmation email or ID
  • Phone and/or camera
  • Chargers or battery packs
  • Water bottle
  • Touch-up items (e.g., makeup, hairbrush, deodorant)
