Tufts Commencement will begin at 9 am on the lawn between Ballou Hall and Bendetson Hall.

Museum School students participate in Phase I, which is the all-school portion of the ceremony, and includes a procession, speeches, and the awarding of honorary degrees. Degree candidates should assemble by Miller Hall (undergraduates) or Fletcher Tennis Courts (MFA graduates) at 8:45 am on the morning of Commencement. MAT graduates should consult their marching cards for assembly information.

MAT students will receive their degrees at Tufts in a separate ceremony at 11:30 am in Barnum 008. Combined-Degree students will be contacted separately by Tufts since they can choose to receive their degree at either location.

Following the University-wide Commencement Ceremony (Phase I) graduates of the School of Arts & Sciences and the School of Engineering are invited to enjoy a gourmet box lunch presented by Tufts Dining. Students who participate in the Tufts ceremony will be given three complimentary luncheon tickets for themselves and two guests. Additional luncheon tickets (at $7.50 per ticket) may be purchased by phone (617-627-3566) or at Tufts Dining Services’ administrative office, 89 Curtis Street, Medford, between 9 am and 5 pm starting April 20.
