Commencement

Candidates who meet the eligibility requirements may participate in Commencement at Husky Stadium, on June 13, 2026.

When you fill out the Registration/Order form you will be asked about needs for family and friends who will be attending the ceremony in Husky Stadium or at school, college or departmental events.

All graduates attending commencement at Husky Stadium or a school, college or departmental ceremony for which they need cap and gown or parking, will need to fill out this form.

You will pick up your order at the University Book Store in early June.

The names of graduates from the Summer 2025, Autumn 2025, Winter 2026, and Spring 2026 quarters will be printed in the Commencement program.

In addition to the official Commencement ceremony at Husky Stadium, there are over 100 school, college, departmental, and student organization graduation celebrations.

Husky Stadium has several guidelines to ensure that everyone who attends Commencement is safe and has a great experience.

The University’s International Student Services webpage provides information about inviting family members living outside the United States to visit our campus.

Family members and friends who can’t attend the live ceremony in Husky Stadium can still participate via the UWTV live stream or through Virtual Seat.

If you are traveling to Seattle in June, we suggest booking your rooms and travel as early as possible.

Graduation is a big deal and it’s time to celebrate. This page is a great place to start!

If you’re still trying to figure out what to do after graduation, don’t worry…many graduating seniors, both at UW and across the country, are in the same boat!
