Columbia College Ceremony Ticketing

Updated May 6, 2024

Ticketing is open for Columbia College Class Day.

Ticketing Portal

To access the ticketing system, you will be prompted to verify several pieces of information. It is imperative that you enter the values for first name, last name and email exactly as they appeared in the email sent to you on April 9 from Columbia College Class Day. Once you have logged in successfully, follow the step-by-step instructions below to claim your tickets. If you have issues with ticketing, contact classday@columbia.edu.


After registering, graduates will receive a single ticket to be used for their own entry to the Class Day Ceremony. Students will also receive separate emails for each registered guest. Each email will contain a unique guest ticket for the ceremony. Students are responsible for distributing these guest tickets directly to their guests.

To modify your registration, visit the ticketing platform, select “Already registered?” located under the “Register Now” button, then enter the email address used at registration and the confirmation number provided in your graduate confirmation email.
