Graduates, family, friends, and fellow students from Rutgers University–New Brunswick and Rutgers Health are invited to join the 258th Anniversary Commencement festivities on Sunday, May 12, 2024. President Jonathan Holloway will preside over the Commencement ceremony and formally confer the degrees of graduates and honorary degree recipients at this event.
Rutgers graduation events also include school-hosted convocation ceremonies, held in the days surrounding Commencement. At your school's convocation, you'll join your dean and other members of your school to receive individual recognition. Check with your specific school regarding information for convocations. We invite students from the schools affiliated with Rutgers University–New Brunswick and Rutgers Health and their guests to attend both the Commencement and convocation ceremonies.
Check back as more information will be shared soon.
Rutgers University–New Brunswick and Rutgers Health hold Commencement and school-based Convocation ceremonies once a year, in May. Most students who expect to receive degrees in October 2023, January 2024, May 2024, or August 2024 are eligible to participate in the May 2024 school convocation and Commencement events, but it varies by school. Contact your school directly if you have questions.
