Congratulations to the Class of 2008 and to their families and friends!

The university’s 242nd Anniversary Commencement ceremony will be held on Wednesday, May 21, 2008, at 1:30 p.m. on Voorhees Mall. University Commencement is a universitywide ceremony at which the president of the university formally confers all undergraduate and graduate degrees awarded throughout the past academic year.

Separate convocations are also held by most of the individual schools and colleges at various times from Sunday, May 18, through Friday, May 23, at which degrees and awards are distributed to the schools’ graduating classes.

Commencement and convocation ceremonies are managed by several different offices at Rutgers. In order to expedite your questions, please direct them to the contacts listed for each event on the following web pages:
