Applying for Graduation and Registering for Commencement
To graduate and participate in the University Commencement Ceremony, students must first apply for graduation through the MyIUP portal.
Once your graduation application is submitted, you will receive a confirmation for your records. After applying for graduation, you will receive an email from iup-commencement@tassel.iup.edu with instructions to register for the commencement ceremony.
All spring ceremonies are ticketed, and each graduate may claim up to six guest tickets—no tickets, no entry.
Once registered for the ceremony, graduates will claim their guest tickets in their Tassel Hub. They can print their tickets from the email or send them directly to their guests via email.
Celebration Toast
Graduates, family, and friends are invited to attend a Commencement Celebration Toast for graduating students. Champagne and non-alcoholic sparkling cider will be available. IUP graduates will receive a keepsake IUP Alumni champagne flute while supplies last. Hosted by the Office of Alumni and Friends.
