Welcome to the Montclair State University Commencement information site. Commencement is a special occasion, both solemn and joyous. It is a time when we respect the traditions of higher education and recognize the sacrifices that brought each graduate to this point of personal growth. We are delighted to honor the accomplishments of our soon-to-be graduates and look forward to celebrating with you.
Convocations
Below are the dates and ceremony start times for the Convocation ceremonies. All convocations will be held at Sprague Field. For more information, please visit the Convocation website.
Rain Date for Convocations - Sprague Field:
*Degree will be conferred at Commencement on May 18.
Students' names are not read during the Commencement ceremony, but are read during the Convocation ceremonies. However, seating is limited at the Convocation ceremonies and tickets are required. (Convocations vs Commencement: What's the Difference?) Because Commencement is held at the IZOD Center, which can accommodate nearly 20,000 attendees, tickets are not required and graduates may invite as many guests as they please.
