We need your help encouraging your undergraduate students to apply to be the student
speaker or soloist for the 10 am ceremony on May 10th! This is a wonderful opportunity
for your students to lend their voice to commencement and play a special role in their
ceremony. Learn more about the application process -- applications are due March 20th! Email SGA President Dee Mallory if you have any questions.
The RSVP deadline for the Spring 2024 ceremonies is April 5th. It is imperative you submit an RSVP to ensure we have a seat saved for you!
Faculty participating in commencement will park at no charge in the Georgia Cyber Center parking deck, located at 1 11th Street, Augusta between 11th and 12th streets in Downtown Augusta. A parking attendant will be on site to let you in the deck at no charge. Platform Party participants will park in the 10th Street parking lot next to the convention center.
Faculty members participating in commencement will need to wear regalia. If the faculty member does not have regalia to wear, regalia is available to rent through the RoarStore for $100 plus tax. Regalia rentals can be picked up at the Summerville Campus RoarStore or shipped to you directly for an additional fee. The regalia rental order deadline for the Spring 2024 commencement ceremonies has passed as of March 15, 2024. Contact the RoarStore if you plan to pay for regalia rentals with departmental funds or have any additional questions about the regalia rental process.
GradImages, our commencement photography vendor, will be on site taking photos during each ceremony. Platform party: If you're seated behind one of the podiums, don't forget that you're on camera!
