Kennesaw State University will host in-person Commencement ceremonies May 10-14 for the first time in more than a year, celebrating spring graduates along with graduates of the class of 2020, who were unable to celebrate with an in-person event last year due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Kennesaw State will recognize more than 3,600 students who are earning their degrees this spring. In addition, all 2020 spring, summer and fall graduates have been invited to participate in Commencement, with nearly 5,000 expected to attend one of the nine ceremonies during the week.

Throughout the weeklong Commencement celebration, nine graduation ceremonies will be held outdoors at Fifth Third Bank Stadium. The ceremonies will be held rain or shine.
