Guest Information

We are excited to have you celebrate our graduates with us.

Guest Admit Tickets

The 2024 Spring Commencement at Medgar Evers College will be held at Coney Island Amphitheater.  Guest Admit tickets are required for everyone entering the venue, without exception. Each graduate will be given five (5) tickets for guests.  Students will receive guest tickets during one of the scheduled Graduate Briefings. Please note that the number of guest tickets is based on the maximum legal capacity of the facility and the number of graduating candidates.

All guests must present a Guest Admit Ticket for scanning to be admitted into an indoor ceremony. Every person must have a Guest Admit Ticket regardless of age (this includes infants & children).  Seats are first-come, first-serve.

Commencement Live Stream  

A live stream of the ceremony will be accessible via the Medgar Evers College’s Commencement page to accommodate those family members and friends who exceed the number of Guest Admit Tickets available.
