The Commencement Registration/Order form, which is filled out by all graduates attending Commencement, has special sections in which graduates can tell us about any disability needs they or their guests may have. Disability accommodations available for guests are explained on our Disability Accommodations page. Graduates will be asked about guest accommodations when they fill out the registration/order form.
Student Accommodations at Husky Stadium
Accommodations available to graduates attending Commencement include
- sign language interpreters
- assistive listening devices
- wheelchair seating
- mobility impairment assistance
The Registration/Order Form also allows graduates to tell us about any other accommodations they might need (e.g., as a result of recent injury, pregnancy).
Once the form has been filled out, the graduate will be contacted to make sure their needs are met. Graduates who need assistance can make arrangements to meet with access marshals when they enter the student lineup area at Husky Stadium on Commencement Day.
There are two faculty and disabled student entrances to the lineup area – one on the north, one on the south – that may be used graduates with disabilities, if they wish. They can be seen on the map shown here.
Other Ceremonies Accommodations
There are over 100 School, College, Departmental, and school group graduation ceremonies/celebrations that take place on campus. Nearly all of them take place the week before graduation. Graduates will be asked which ceremonies they are attending when they fill out the Registration/Order form. Graduates needing assistance may then contact the event coordinators for the ceremonies they are attending to make sure any access needs are met.
