Rutgers–New Brunswick Convocations

Be sure to join us for the 247th Anniversary Commencement on Sunday, May 19, 2013, at 12:30 p.m. in High Point Solutions Stadium on the New Brunswick Campus. You may invite as many guests as you like and tickets are not required. The stadium opens at 10:30 a.m.

Graduation is made up of two great events: the big celebration at the stadium and a smaller convocation where you'll join with your school or program's graduating class and receive individual recognition. Convocations will be held in the days surrounding University Commencement.
