The University encourages faculty to participate to honor and support students’ academic achievements
All Commencement ceremonies at the Pullman campus are open to the public and free to attend. You may invite as many people as you would like. NO TICKETS REQUIRED! Graduates may invite as many friends and relatives as they wish to the ceremony. There are no reserved seats and guests may sit in any of the designated guest seating areas and come and go at their leisure. Only graduates are allowed to sit in the graduates’ seating area.
Free parking is available in lots across the Pullman campus on a first come-first-serve basis on Saturday, May 6. Traffic will be slow and heavy as you arrive on campus. Please take extra travel time into account as you come to celebrate and ensure the safety of yourself and others!
Shuttle buses will be operating between 1pm-6pm from the parking lots adjacent to the Lewis Alumni Center and French/Lighty Administration Buildings to and from Beasley Coliseum.
Please refer to the Spring Commencement Parking Map for more information.
For those that cannot join us in person, we will be streaming the ceremony. Find links for the live event here: https://experience.wsu.edu/
The program is not a listing of those attending the ceremony but a listing of those that applied to graduate for December 2023 by the deadline set by the Registrars’ Office.
With the substantial number of graduates, there is no room on the event floor for personal photographers. Sit back and enjoy the celebration as our professional photographers capture your graduate as they cross the stage and receive their diploma cover. Professional commencement photography will be provided by After Image Visual Services. Each graduate will be photographed against the official WSU backdrop, with the dean of their college, and with the university President or Provost.
Photo proofs will be available online at www.gradphotos.biz/wsu approximately one week after Commencement. Proofs will be emailed and mailed to the addresses provided at registration. Dozens of photo and video products are available including prints, customized WSU plaques, tassel display frames, digital downloads, photo USBs, ceremony DVDs, custom video clips, and so much more. You will be sent an email with a link to view photos on-line within a week of the ceremony.
