A. We are hosting larger, numerous, events this year, due to our now being able to celebrate our graduates’ achievements in person. The ticket cost is nominal and simply allows us to accommodate a greater number of guests. In addition, we want to ensure as many of our grads, their family members and friends and our faculty and staff can attend as possible. The purchase of tickets allows us to know precisely how many will be attending and enables guests to know they will have a seat at the event.

A. While we may have tickets at the door for purchase, please note that they are being sold on a first-come, first-serve basis and are subject to availability. We would not want you, or any of your loved ones to miss out on this special day, and so we are encouraging you to purchase those tickets as early as possible.

A. We have worked diligently to make sure that this celebration can accommodate as many graduates, families, and friends as possible. As such, you can invite, and purchase tickets for, as many guests as you would like.

A. We want all our students to be able to bring their families. Children are certainly welcome to attend the event. Please note that a ticket is required if a person requires a seat. Children under two do not require a ticket. Any child over the age of two is required to have their own ticket.

Please be sure that you are in fact graduating before purchasing a ticket. You can check those details at the Student Centre at your campus.
