On Saturday, May 4, 2024, the University of Kentucky and the College of Public Health celebrates our graduates as part of the Spring Commencement Ceremony at Rupp Arena.
The Alumni Association hosts a Grad Gathering following each ceremony. Graduates and their families are encouraged to attend. Stop by the CPH table!
Tickets are not required for guests to attend the graduation ceremonies.
The Rupp Arena at Central Bank Center parking lot is located on West High Street and will have free parking for all guests and graduates.
In an effort to ensure all graduates and their families have an enjoyable experience, you are asked to move your vehicle from the High Street Lot immediately after your ceremony concludes to ensure the next ceremony can start on time.
For May Commencement Ceremonies, shuttles services will run continuously from 8am-9:30pm on Friday, and 8am-1:30pm on Saturday from Administration Drive by Parking Structure #5 (Cornerstone Garage) to Rupp Arena at Central Bank Center.
The Cornerstone parking structure, located on 401 S Limestone, will also be open for those interested in shuttling from campus. Entrances to the parking structure are located on S Limestone and S Upper Street.
