Update for graduands and guests:
As of June 9, 2023 some Convocation ceremonies are approaching capacity. If you haven't yet confirmed your participation as a graduand please contact graduation@ufv.ca with your request and we will do our best to accommodate your needs. For those ceremonies that have reached capacity guests may be directed to an overflow space where the ceremony will be live-streamed.
Guest tickets must be reserved by the Graduand
Seating is not assigned and selection is made on a first-come, first-served basis. Cushions are encouraged.
A livestream viewing area is available on campus for those who would like to celebrate with their graduand but do not have a ticket.
