More information will be coming in August 2026.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDecember 18\, 2026 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConcordia Campus \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCommencement Ceremony\n\n\nThis ceremony will be celebrating all Summer and Fall 2026 graduates. More information will be coming in August 2026.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDecember 19\, 2026 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConcordia Campus \n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n\n	\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCeremony Details\n\n\n\nCommencement information will be sent to graduation candidates via their Eagles email account. Graduates should be sure to check their Eagles email frequently and are encouraged to share that information with their guests. \n\n\n\nThis page is frequently updated as additional information becomes available from the Commencement Committee. Please contact graduation@cui.edu with your Commencement questions. \n\n\n\nThe stage portion of the Commencement ceremony will be live-streamed. The video will come available the day of Commencement. \n\n\n\n\nCommencement Livestream\n\n\n\n\nCommencement Format\n\n\n\nConcordia University Irvine is proud to celebrate our graduates alongside their families through a unique ceremony format. This walkthrough format allows graduates and their families to engage with the campus community together while celebrating each graduate’s individual accomplishments. Please click the button below to watch a highlight video of one of our past Commencements. \n\n\n\n\nCommencement Highlights\n\n\n\n\nAs soon as graduates and their families arrive on campus\, they will be guided along a route through campus to the stage. Plan for walking approximately half a mile over a period of 30-40 minutes. PLEASE DRESS ACCORDINGLY! Portions of the walkway may be uphill. Graduates will enter the venue with their friends and family\, walk across the stage\, and have professional photos taken. After the graduate has crossed the stage and their family and friends are done cheering\, they will meet outside to continue celebrating. Multiple photo opportunities will be present on our beautiful campus. \n\n\n\nGuest Assistance\n\n\n\nThis ceremony is a walking ceremony\, but golf cart rides will be provided from the parking lot to the venue and back to the parking lot for guests who need assistance. Golf cart services cannot be reserved in advance but will be readily available for those who need assistance. Let the gatehouse attendant know that you need assistance and a cart will meet you at your parking spot. If necessary\, guests should bring their own walkers or wheelchairs as none will be provided. Please note that only trained service dogs are allowed at Commencement. \n\n\n\nParking Passes/Tickets\n\n\n\nDue to limited parking availability and venue capacity restrictions\, graduates will be issued 2 Commencement parking passes each. The Commencement parking pass is in lieu of guest tickets and graduates may invite as many guests as can safely fit inside the vehicle. Vehicles must be able to fit into a standard-size parking stall (no RVs\, limos\, party buses\, etc.). Commencement parking passes will be issued to graduates who have a time slot via their Eagles email the week before Commencement. Regular campus parking passes will not grant entry to campus during the ceremony and we will not issue additional passes. Please plan accordingly. There will be a designated area on campus for rideshare services to drop off and pick up. \n\n\n\nTime Slots\n\n\n\nGraduates will be assigned time slots through their Eagles email. Time slots represent the time that the graduate and all of their guests should arrive on campus to begin their celebration. Each time slot has a maximum capacity but there are enough time slots for everyone. All graduates must fill out a Time Slot Request Form to participate in Commencement. Students who do not fill out this form will not be assigned a time slot. The form will be sent to students via their Eagles email on October 1st and will be open until October 15th at 4:30pm. The form will allow students to either request other graduates they would like to walk with OR to request a specific time slot. Please know we will try our very best to accommodate everyone’s requests\, but requests are not guaranteed. After the form closes\, any and all time slot requests will not be accepted. Official time slot assignments will be emailed to graduates who filled out the form at the beginning of November. \n\n\n\nRain or Shine Event\n\n\n\nThe ceremony will be held rain or shine. \n\n\n\nPhotos\n\n\n\nWe are pleased to offer GradImages as our photo vendor. Pre-register for photography before the ceremony for 20% off of your order. \n\n\n\nDecorum & Celebration Policies\n\n\n\nGown length and style may not be altered. Stoles and hoods may not be customized in any way. Modest personal embellishments are allowed on the cap\, but must lie flat\, cannot extend over the edge\, and must be appropriate. \n\n\n\nOnly Concordia-approved regalia (including pins\, stoles\, cords\, and medallions) bestowed at the Undergraduate Academic Achievement ceremony and provided by university-sponsored clubs or Concordia University Irvine Veterans Resource Center may be worn at graduation. Decorative items such as costume leis\, beads\, or sashes may only be worn after the ceremony. Balloons\, alcohol\, glass\, noisemakers\, firearms\, and weapons are not permitted on campus. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHotel and Travel Information\n\n\n\nConcordia is partnering with local hotels to give you and your guests a pleasant stay during your celebration. \n\n\n\nHilton Garden Inn Irvine/Orange County Airport – Click here to book a room.
