Commencement details announced; grad deadline extended
This year UAF will celebrate commencement on Saturday, April 30, 2022, at the Carlson Center in Fairbanks. We’re planning to hold two short, student-centered ceremonies, however this is a ticketed event and seating is limited, so students must confirm their attendance at the ceremony via RSVP form by March 18, 2022.
The early graduation application deadline has been extended to Feb. 6 and the fee is $50. Apply early! After Feb. 6, the fee then rises to $80, with a March 1 final deadline.
The ceremony will be limited to students and their ticketed guests. Students will receive up to four tickets. A waitlist option will be provided for students who may need additional guest tickets.
