Ticket Information 

Guest tickets will be requested online by the graduate via the Student Portal.  The graduates will request the number of tickets desired for their guests.  However, the graduate is not guaranteed the number of tickets requested.  Graduates and parents/guardians should discuss the number of tickets the graduate should request for the family.  Graduates who do not submit a request will receive a maximum of 2 tickets.

Each guest ticket for schools with a ceremony at Kennesaw State University will have a unique barcode and will be valid only for the ceremony, date, and time shown on the ticket.  Lost or damaged tickets cannot be replaced.  Once a ticket is scanned for entry to the venue, it is no longer valid and cannot be re-used for further entry or re-entry.

• November 28 – Student Portal opens for December graduates to request tickets
• December 15 – Student Portal closes for December graduates to request tickets
• January 16 – Student Portal opens for May graduates to request tickets
• February 29 – Student Portal closes for May graduates to request tickets
