RU-NB Commencement 2026

Congratulations to the Class of 2026!

Join us for the 260th Anniversary Commencement at Rutgers University–New Brunswick and Rutgers Health at SHI Stadium starting at 10 am. President Tate will preside over the ceremony, conferring degrees to graduates and honorary recipients. Don't miss out on this unforgettable experience! 

In addition to the main Commencement event, graduates can partake in GSAPP's Convocation ceremony on Thursday, May 14th at the Nicholas Music Center. This is your chance to walk the stage and be individually recognized alongside your dean and peers.

All students affiliated with RU-NB and Rutgers Health, along with their guests, are invited to make the most of this celebratory occasion by attending both the Commencement and Convocation ceremonies. See you there!
