Faculty Joining the Platform

Faculty are invited to join the platform party, alongside school and university leadership and honored guests. To ensure you have the appropriate faculty regalia and to avoid late fees, please RSVP. The Dean’s Office will cover rental costs for those requiring regalia.

If you anticipate being unable to attend, please complete the form accordingly. This will help us track attendance and avoid accruing additional rental costs for regalia.

The deadline for form submissions is Friday March 13, 2026. For any inquiries or assistance, please contact ap-commencement@buffalo.edu.

Faculty and Staff: Please be advised that our School’s ceremony will be ticketed.

Additionally, on the day of commencement, please be cautious when exiting the building at the end of the ceremony to take photos with students—you will not be allowed to re-enter the building.
