Commencement Celebration Weekend Notes
Graduation Links
Invitations: Email invitations for Rensselaer's 203rd Commencement ceremony and picnic held on Saturday, May 16, 2009 will be sent out in April from the Academic Outreach Programs Office, and will include a form for ordering tickets. Commencement and picnic tickets will be mailed to your home by the Academic Outreach programs Office in early May.
Important: Please order your tickets through the Academic Outreach Programs office by responding to the email invite by the designated response date. – Do not use the online form on the main Rensselaer commencement website. If you do not receive the email invite, please contact Ronnie Rowe at (518) 276-2347.
Requests for Additional Tickets: Additional tickets may be requested. The number of graduates not using their allotment of seven tickets determines the number of extra additional tickets available. If severe weather arises, these extra tickets will be color-coded for video site viewing of the ceremony. No additional indoor tickets to the Field House will be available.
Special Guest Requests: Requests for services for guests with special requirements (http://www.rpi.edu/academics/commencement/guest_reqs.html) should be made online by April 17.
Celebration Picnic: The Celebration Picnic (http://www.rpi.edu/academics/commencement/picnic.html) after the ceremony is free, but tickets are required. Picnic tickets are separate from tickets to the ceremony, but they are also limited to seven guest tickets (unless you have made a special request - see above).
August and December graduates please note: If you have already made direct arrangements with the Registrar's Office to receive tickets, please call our office as soon as possible.
NOTE: The Distance Learning Open House does not require tickets (just an RSVP).
QUESTIONS: Please contact Ronnie Rowe at (518) 276-2347.
