This event has concluded.

The event has ended, but you can still catch all the highlights by watching the recorded live stream available here.

 

We’re thrilled to celebrate your achievement with you and your loved ones. If you have any questions, email events@trinity.edu.

 

Step 1: Look for the Ticket Email

  • When? Check your inbox for an email with the subject "Congratulations, Graduates! Secure Your Tickets for Winter Commencement" from events@trinity.edu.
  • Why? This email is your gateway to claim up to 20 tickets for your family and friends.

 

Step 2: Guest Registration

Graduates don’t need tickets. Your spot is already reserved!

🚨 Important: A student can register each guest or forward the QR code to their friends and family. If you forward the email to someone else, they must use your official student email address to access the tickets.

Each ticket requires:

  • Guest’s first name, last name, and unique email address
  • For guests without an email: please use the graduating student’s email address.
  • Children ages three and under do not require a ticket. However, they cannot occupy a seat and must sit in the lap of a ticketed guest.
  • If a guest needs accessible seating, mark it on the request form. Those indicating that they need accessibility assistance on the registration form will receive an email 1 week before the ceremony with further details. For further questions, email events@trinity.edu.

After registration:

  • Students will receive a confirmation email and QR code for all registered guests.
  • If a guest uses their own email they will also receive their own email confirmation with QR code.
  • Seating is open within the auditorium, but sections reserved for graduates will be clearly marked.
  • Pro Tip QR codes can be saved to Apple or Google Wallet for easy access.
  • If someone doesn’t receive their QR code within 30 minutes, remind them to check their spam folder.

Deadline

Guest registration will remain open until midnight on Thursday, December 19.

Please ensure that your guests complete their registration before this deadline.

Can't attend in person? A live stream will be available online.

 

Step 3: Need Extra Tickets?

Please email events@trinity.edu with any request. Unclaimed tickets will go into a pool to support other students.

 

Step 4: Don’t forget your QR Code for easy entry!

Laurie Auditorium doors open at 9:00 a.m., one hour before the ceremony begins at 10:00 a.m.

  • Bring your QR codes (on your device or printed).
  • Guests can leave and re-enter using the same QR code.

If guests have trouble downloading or printing their QR code, they can visit the resolution table at Laurie Auditorium on Commencement morning. Be sure to remind them to arrive early, especially if they’re having ticketing issues.
