Guests

All guests will enter through the front entrance on 57th Street and 7th Avenue.  They will not be permitted to enter through the stage entrance with you.  Guests will not be permitted to enter the Hall before 3:30 pm, so keep that in mind if you want them to hold any personal belongings.

Once the faculty and student procession begins, guests who are not already in the Hall will not be permitted to enter the Hall until the graduates and the faculty are seated. Since all seating is general admission, seats will be taken on a first-come, first served basis.

As the Hall fills up, areas will be closed off and guests arriving will be directed to seating that is available. Please plan accordingly. To maintain the dignity of the ceremony, guests will be asked by the ushers to keep the aisles clear.
