Commencement 2026
Saturday, May 9 at the Bank of Springfield Center in Downtown Springfield
Each year the University of Illinois Springfield celebrates its many outstanding graduates by holding commencement ceremonies. This year, ceremonies (divided by college) will be held to celebrate our graduates as noted below:
- 12:30 p.m. - Graduates from the College of Health, Science and Technology AND the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences
- 5:30 p.m. - Graduates from the College of Business and Management AND the College of Public Affairs and Education
Meet Up for Graduates/Faculty
"The Meet Up" will return by popular demand again this year. It's a designated space for students and faculty to connect and celebrate before each commencement ceremony begins. It is co-sponsored by the divisions of Academic Affairs and Student Affairs and will be a relaxed and meaningful moment to honor relationships formed throughout the academic journey. Light refreshments (water and lemonade) will be provided, along with an open space for photos/mingling. Staff will be available to answer questions and offer assistance.
