Commencement Ceremony

Wednesday, May 20, 11 am* | Yankee Stadium

The schools and colleges of New York University join together in celebrating one Commencement ceremony each year. This invitation is extended to all graduates and degree candidates for the 2014-2015 academic year.

With banners flying and wearing their violet caps and gowns, the Class of 2015 will make history as it graces the stands of Yankee Stadium for New York University's 183rd Commencement Exercises.
The ceremony includes a presidential address, a student speaker, the awarding of honorary degrees to a number of distinguished individuals, and the conferring of degrees and certificates by the president of the University only after all classes have been recognized by their deans. The program concludes with the ceremonial passing of the University torch.
