The University has emailed graduating students with instructions to complete the Commencement Checklist. Completing the checklist is required in order to order your custom UP cap and gown, request tickets, and select Commencement Weekend events.
Because the checklist link is personalized, students must access it through their UP email message titled “Complete your Commencement Checklist!” If you did not receive the message, please contact UP Commencement. - February 17, 2026
