 
Unless used as a convocation site, all University parking
facilities will be open, without charge, for general
commencement parking. Please note that for the All-University
commencement ceremony, the Babcock Street parking lot is
reserved for handicapped parking, but will open after 3 p.m. for
general parking. Morning access to the Babcock parking area
requires a special permit obtained in advance from the Office of Disability Services,
617-353-3658. For afternoon convocations, portions of all other
open lots will be reserved for handicapped parking; contact Disability Services for
additional information.
In anticipation of heavy traffic and limited parking spaces on-campus
and along Commonwealth Avenue, we urge you to leave your vehicle where
you are staying and use public transportation.
With the cooperation of the Massachusetts
Bay Transportation Authority, we will provide complimentary one-day
passes to all MBTA Rapid Transit, bus, and streetcar services on
Sunday, May 14. These passes will be distributed to graduates and their guests
at Parking Services, 775 Commonwealth Avenue, May 8-12, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Passes will also
be distributed on Sunday, May 14, at the conclusion of the main Commencement Exercises, on Harry
Agganis Way and on the "T" platforms located near Babcock Street and
Harry Agganis Way.
For your convenience, shuttle buses will operate continuously along Commonwealth
Avenue to transport guests to Nickerson Field and on-campus convocation
sites. Service hours will be from 7:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. The buses will
stop upon request.
