Information for students
Central Connecticut State University will host a winter commencement ceremony on Saturday, December 14, at 1 p.m. in Welte Auditorium. The snow/inclement weather date will be Sunday, December 15. We look forward to celebrating with you!
Due to limited seating capacity, only the first 350 graduates who RSVP will be admitted and granted three guest tickets. If you require more than three guest tickets, consider attending the Spring ceremony which allows graduates to invite up to six guests.
When the December ceremony reaches capacity or if you would prefer to participate in the Spring ceremony, all eligible graduates will be automatically invited to participate in the May 2025 ceremony.
Information about the Spring ceremony will be sent to students via Central email in March 2025.
