AQ Commencement Events                   accommodation request form

Congratulations future Aquinas College graduate!  This form is intended for students to request accommodations on behalf of themselves, or a guest, for a Spring 2023 commencement event (GradFest, Commencement Mass, or Commencement ceremony). This form may be completed by a graduating student needing accommodations, or, on behalf of a guest who is attending commencement (eg. a family member requesting accessible seating, sign language interpretation, etc). 

Aquinas College is committed to providing equal opportunity and access for participation in all programs, services and activities. In order to adequately prepare for your needs, please submit this form prior to GradFest on April 17, 2023.  Requests received after this time frame will be honored whenever possible.

PLEASE NOTE: 
Commencement will be fully live streamed & live captioned as the ceremony progresses for those who are deaf/hard of hearing.

Accessible seating is located in various areas of the commencement ceremony facility for convenience of access to entrances/exits, restrooms, water, and assistance from AQ personnel (if requested). An accessible seating area will be offered on the main floor for individuals with mobility impacts who request this in advance using this form.  Due to limited capacity, only the person needing the accommodation and 1 additional guest may sit in the designated accessible seating area.  Additional seating is available for other members of the graduate's guest party in the general admission section or "over-flow" viewing location. 

Instructions for ticketing and arrival times for individuals requesting accommodations will be sent via email prior to the commencement events.  Commencement guests needing accommodations may arrive to the venue 30 minutes early for assistance with seating. 

Graduates can email any questions or concerns related to commencement accommodations to Dr. Christine DeWildt, Coordinator of Accessibility Services, at dewildtc@aquinas.edu. Thank you for your partnership, and we look forward to celebrating the class of 2023!
