To All Members of the Campus Community:
It is with great excitement that I announce that 2024 Commencement is scheduled for May 17-19 at Golden 1 Center. I look forward to celebrating graduation with students and their supporters at this incredible venue.
Sacramento State’s Commencement website has been updated with the detailed schedule and other important information about the ceremonies. Graduating students should read the ”Graduate Information and FAQ” page for answers to common Commencement-related questions.
Students must register to participate in Commencement. In March, eligible students will receive an email to indicate that the link in their Student Center is active so they can register and claim guest tickets. Each eligible graduate will be allotted eight tickets to their specific ceremony. They will be able to access their tickets through their Student Center beginning March 4. A step-by-step guide to claiming tickets soon will be available on the Commencement website.
Only Fall 2023, Spring 2024, and Summer 2024 graduates are invited to participate in Spring 2024 Commencement. We are unable to accommodate requests for exceptions.
If the Sacramento Kings make it past the first round of NBA Conference playoffs, Commencement could be moved to Hornet Stadium. Our University Events team is working to ensure that if Commencement is moved to Hornet Stadium, it will remain a high-quality, unforgettable experience for our graduates and their guests. The schedule for this contingency plan can be found on the Commencement website. If we shift to the contingency schedule at Hornet Stadium, each graduate still will receive eight guest tickets and will cross the stage and be individually recognized. We will have an unforgettable celebration at either venue.
We will notify graduates via SacSend and through updates posted to the Commencement website about any changes in venue and schedule. I look forward to celebrating this significant occasion with the Hornet Family.
Stingers Up!
