We anticipate that the ceremony will last approximately 2 to 2½ hours.

The event will move forward as planned unless lightning makes it unsafe to do so. If that is the case, the ceremony will be moved to the Sally Blair Ames Sports Complex. There will be a limit of 4 guests per graduate for an indoor ceremony.

Yes, the College will use a professional photographer who has worked at many past Commencement ceremonies. GradImages will mail information about their services to students’ home addresses. You may visit their website at gradimages.com.

The Stonehill Chapel Choir will be selling floral bouquets, Dunkin’ muffins and donuts, and graduation-themed stuffed bears at two locations on the Quad, with proceeds benefiting their ministry. (Cards accepted) 

You may contact Jostens for personalized announcements and accessories.

Diplomas can be picked up at the Registrar’s office immediately after the ceremony. Diplomas that are not picked up will be mailed to the graduates' homes. Please make sure your current mailing address is on file.

All residence halls should be vacated by 4 p.m. on Sunday, May 19.

Family & Guest Information

The graduates can invite 6 guests to the outdoor Commencement ceremony. If the ceremony moves indoors to the sports complex due to heavy rain, only 4 guests will be allowed because of fire marshal regulations and building capacity. 

For non-ticket holders, the ceremony will be live-streamed and can be viewed in the Hemingway Theatre in the Duffy Academic Center or the McCarthy Auditorium in May Hall.

If the ceremony is held outdoors non-ticket holders are welcome, there will be standing room only in the perimeter of the general seating area.

Rain or shine, guests are invited to watch the live-streamed ceremony in the Hemingway Theatre in the Duffy Academic Center or the McCarthy Auditorium in May Hall.

The quad area will open at 8 a.m. Seating selection is on a first come, first served basis. Ushers will be available to direct guests to available seating.

Parking will be available for all guests. Campus police officers and parking attendants will be positioned to direct you to the best available parking.

Handicap parking will be available. The Duffy Academic Center parking lot will be reserved for handicap parking. Please have your disability plate or placard visible in your car.
