Guest Commencement Attendance
Guest Attendance at Commencement
Trinity Valley Community College is glad to have guests attend commencement to help us celebrate this momentous occasion with our graduates. There are no limits to the number of guests each student may invite, however there are a few things to keep in mind when joining us for the ceremonies.
- Many map applications will guide guests to the back entrance of the venue. Please use TVCC's Venue & Parking map for the best experience navigating the commencement venue.
- The commencement venue is rather large; be sure to arrive with plenty of time to accommodate parking and seating. TVCC does have courtesy shuttles in the parking areas to assist guests with the trip to the venue entrances.
- Gifts are available for purchase for graduates in the venue foyer.
- To ensure all of our guests are provided the best viewing experience possible, balloons are not permitted in the venue's guest seating area.
- The venue's guest seating area does not have floor access; you will not be able to exchange items with your graduate until you have exited the seating area.
- While there is no guest limit, TVCC does often host many ceremonies in one day. Because of this, we ask that guests continue festivites after the ceremonies outside of the venue seating area.
- Any guests requiring special accommodations should contact studentaccess@tvcc.edu at least 3 weeks prior to the event to guarantee arrangements can be made.
- There are no pets or animals permitted within the venue, with exception made only for service animals required because of diability that are trained to work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability.
Want Professional Photos of the Big Day? All graduates will have their photo taken with a professional photographer directly after walking the stage. Students can order these professional photos at the link below. To make the best of the professional photography opportunity, students can register with the photogrpahy team prior to the event. This will ensure that they have the best opportunity to focus in on your student for their special day.
