Convocation Duration:
The Convocation Ceremony is normally about 1.5 hours.
Reception:
Immediately following the Convocation Ceremony, a social gathering of all guests with graduates will take place in a designated area.
Tickets:
Some convocation ceremonies are ticketed and tickets (QR code) are distributed to the graduating student. Please obtain the QR code from the graduating student.
If the ceremony you are attending is not ticketed, anyone is welcome to attend the ceremony. In order to manage the Tyndale Chapel capacity, we do ask the graduating student to inform us if they have a large number of guests.
Seating:
There is no reserved seating, so we recommend that guests arrive early and are seated 30 minutes prior to the start of the ceremony to guarantee a seat.
Parking:
Parking is free but limited on site. There are several parking lots around the building and you can park wherever parking is available.
