Tickets and Seating

Guests are invited to attend the Baccalaureate and Commencement. Class Day is exclusively for Spelman College seniors.

No ticket is required for the Baccalaureate Ceremony; however, seating is limited and on a first-come, first-served basis. Guests are not permitted to hold seats.

Commencement Tickets

Ticket and seating information will be shared very soon. All graduates must have their balances cleared to receive their tickets. Please refer to the checklist for clearance status. If there are concerns or questions, please contact the Registrar’s Office directly.

  • Tickets are required for entry.
  • Please distribute and ensure your guest has downloaded their ticket at least 2 weeks prior to Commencement.
  • Ticket duplication is strictly prohibited. Each ticket is unique and valid for a single entry. Once the ticket is scanned, it is no longer valid. Unauthorized duplication, including screenshots or printing multiple copies, will result in invalidation of the ticket. Anyone with a duplicate ticket will not be permitted access to the building. To ensure your loved ones have a smooth and enjoyable experience, we kindly ask that you refrain from distributing duplicate tickets, especially to those traveling into town.
  • Please send only one ticket to each member of your family to prevent delays at the entry doors.


All items listed on the Graduation Checklist must also be completed in order to receive tickets.
