Accessibility

Ensuring an welcoming Commencement experience for everyone.

Georgetown University is committed to providing an accessible and welcoming Commencement experience for our students, guests, and community members. We strive to design our Commencement ceremonies with accessibility in mind and incorporate the accessibility features described below. 

Initial information regarding disability accommodations can be found below. All requests for disability accommodations–for both graduates and their guests–should be made through the graduate’s commencement registration form (via Tassel). 

Graduates should contact their school’s Dean’s office with any questions or for additional information regarding the process for requesting disability accommodations.
