Arrival and Assembly for Procession

All degree candidates (undergraduate, master's, doctoral-for all Schools and Colleges) must reach the Armory line-up area by 10:15 a.m. Degree candidates can reach this area either from Buick Street or from the Commonwealth Avenue-end of Harry Agganis Way. Within the line-up area, prominent signs will indicate where each School will form its procession. Please note: Doctoral candidates from all Schools and all candidates from LAW, MED, SPH, SDM, SSW, GMS, and STH will be grouped together, not by individual schools. University Marshals will assist in directing all degree candidates to the appropriate line-up areas, and will lead processions onto the Field beginning promptly at 10:45 a.m.

Instructions pertaining to line-up and seating at individual School/College convocation will be given directly to the graduate by the School or College during the spring semester.
