Celebrating the Class of 2025

Tue, 18 Nov 2025 14:44:04 -0500

Dear Faculty and Staff,

With winter Commencement just a few weeks away, we would love to have you join us for the celebrations at the Chesapeake Employers Insurance Arena.

Graduate School Ceremony | Wednesday, December 17, at 10 a.m.

Undergraduate Ceremony | Thursday, December 18, at 10 a.m.

If you plan to march in the procession, please register and place any regalia orders before November 20 to avoid expedited shipping fees. UMBC will subsidize the rental of academic regalia for faculty and staff participants, though orders placed after November 20 will incur shipping charges.

Those who wish to participate as event staff are encouraged to sign up as well. Volunteers will receive separate instructions, but please note that arrival time will be 8 a.m. for doors opening at 9 a.m.

For more information and updates, please visit the Commencement website or email commencement@umbc.edu.

Sincerely,

The Commencement Planning Team
