<b>Graduation Website</b>
You can visit www.apu.edu/graduation for information on APU's commencement exercises including details about event dates and times, guests, photos, directions, and more.
<b>Tickets</b>
Spring and Summer Commencement is held at the Cougar Athletic Stadium; Winter Commencement is held in the Richard and Vivian Felix Event Center. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis. In general, no tickets are required to attend Commencement. Inclement weather may require a scheduled outdoor ceremony to move indoors, and due to limited seating, will require the use of tickets. (Tickets will be distributed to graduates when they receive their cap and gown.)
<b>Photography and Video Taping</b>
A professional photographer will take pictures as the graduate receives his/her diploma case. Complimentary color proofs will be mailed to the home of each graduate. You may order enlargements or reprints directly from Chappell Studios at (800) 424-3686.
There will be a designated photography area for guests. Those taking pictures during the ceremony must stay within the designated area to avoid disrupting the ceremony. We kindly suggest taking photos before and after the ceremony. There are many beautiful areas on the APU campus for photo opportunities.
