Volunteering to help out during Convocation

Help make the day special for our graduates by registering to volunteer. There are plenty of options to help make these ceremonies extra special. To volunteer, please email convocation@mun.ca.

Participation on stage in the University procession

Faculty and staff may participate in the University procession and sit on stage during our Convocation ceremonies, space permitting. Visit the Convocation Schedule to view the day and the degrees that will be awarded.

Faculty and staff who wish to attend a specific session as a part of the procession must submit a Faculty and Staff RSVP Form. Only the forms received by May 19, 2023 will be considered.

If participating in the University procession, please arrive at the Green Room of the Arts and Culture Centre at least 30 minutes prior to the start of the session. Appropriate academic dress is required. Those who do not own academic dress will be provided with a black gown and University hood. Gowns and hoods must be returned directly after each session.

The Green Room may be accessed via the backstage entrance near the loading bay door (West end of the building, facing Paton College). Follow the stairs to your right where a Convocation team member will assist you.

If your plans change and you can no longer attend, please advise us by emailing convocation@mun.ca.
