Accessibility Information for Graduates and Guests

Participating graduates requiring accessibility accommodations, such as an interpreter or escort, must email commencement@unf.edu at least two weeks prior to the ceremony. 

UNF Commencement designates a section of the UNF Arena for our deaf and hard of hearing guests. Spectators sitting in this section will have access to the ASL interpreter signing for the ceremony. Guests needing access to this section should notify an usher once inside the UNF Arena.  

Guests with limited mobility should notify an usher inside the Arena who will direct them to designated ADA seating. There will be limited wheelchair seating on the floor.

While in the UNF Arena, the commencement ceremony will be displayed on its jumbo-tron and include open captions, name display when graduates are crossing the stage, and picture-on-picture of the ASL interpreter.  

Shuttle busses that run between Lot 18 to the UNF Arena are also ADA accessible.

More information can be found on the UNF Student Accessibility Center webpage.
