Undergraduate Commencement
Class of 2026 Undergraduate Commencement Weekend
Commencement moved indoors - Saturday, May 9, 2026
Due to forecasted inclement weather, Messiah University has enacted an adjusted schedule for the 2026 Undergraduate Commencement Ceremony. The University will now hold two abbreviated indoor ceremonies (10 a.m. and 1 p.m.) both in Brubaker Auditorium in the Eisenhower Campus Center.
- Graduates are assigned a ceremony based on which academic department they are graduating from.
- Seating is limited inside the auditorium, and guests will be required to have tickets for entry. Each graduate receives 5 tickets for their guests.
- Both ceremonies will be broadcast for livestream viewing from any remote location, or on-campus in the High Center as an overflow location for families and guests.
- The Candlelight Service of Worship and Celebration and Reception for graduates and their families on Friday, May 8, will continue as scheduled.
