I’m a friend/family member, can I order tickets? 

  1. No, only students can order tickets
  2. If a parent is concerned there student won’t order tickets, regalia, etc, tell the parent to talk to their student and get their UW Net ID login info so they can fill out the form for their student. This is the only way a parent can order things for their student. Only students can request modifications to an order which has been submitted.

What does my ticket color mean? 

  1. The ticket color corresponds with the side of the stadium you/your student will be sitting on during commencement; Purple is on the North Side and Gold is on the South Side

When do I get my ticket? How to I order more tickets?
