2027 Commencement
Friday, May 7 and Saturday, May 8
Alfond Arena, University of Maine
Important Dates
February 1: Deadline to apply to graduate
Missing this deadline does not prevent graduation or participation in the ceremony; to be included in the commencement ceremony program and receive guest tickets, students must apply on MaineStreet by Feb. 1. Visit the Student Records website for information about requirements and the application process.
Ticket Information
After applying to graduate, students will receive information via their @maine.edu email with a form to claim the tickets. Students will each receive five (5) tickets. The initial communication explaining the ticketing process was sent in early March, with a ticket claim form to be sent later that month. The deadline to claim these initial tickets will be in early April 2027.
After initial tickets have been claimed, we will be able to determine if any additional tickets will be available. The availability of additional tickets is not a guarantee. Please consider this when inviting guests and making travel arrangements. The initial ticket request form will ask if you are interested in additional tickets (check yes or no). If yes, an additional form to request additional tickets will be sent in April and tickets will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis. Should any tickets be available, they will be limited and claimed very quickly.
Guests attending the Graduate Ceremony on May 7 are not required to have tickets.
