INFORMATION ABOUT TICKETS FOR GUESTS

Since 1853, commencement ceremonies have been held at City College to honor the students in reaching a significant milestone in their educational careers. It is also a special occasion for the parents and families of these students who have often made big sacrifices to allow their children to attend college.  If you cannot attend Commencement it will be webcast live on June 1; go to the College homepage and watch it from anywhere in the world!
This year the College will recognize the outstanding achievements of its top students at the President's Academic Honors Reception.  Students graduating with honors will be also be recognized at the individual school and division ceremonies.

In addition to the College wide Commencement on the morning of June 1, each school and division of the College will have its own graduation ceremony.  Here students march across the stage individually, in cap and gown, as their names are called.  Families are invited, and professional photographers are there to take pictures, and a reception follows.   Additional information about these individual ceremonies will come from the Dean’s offices.
