Ceremony Details and Local Accommodations:

Ceremony: The ceremony will take place in the middle of the UNR Campus Quad (photo at the top of this page). Seating is first come, first served and there is no ticket required to attend. There are three schools graduating during this ceremony- Journalism, Liberal Arts and Nursing. There is no way to know at what point our graduate will walk the stage to receive her diploma. If you plan to attend the ceremony, please let us know and we will do our best to reserve a bank of seats. Reno sun can be very intense- please consider sunscreen.

Parking: Parking is available at all three Parking Complexes on Campus. No University parking permits are needed to park in the parking complexes during commencement.

ADA parking will be available on levels 4-5 of the new Gateway Parking Complex, providing close access to the pedestrian bridge. If you need further assistance, there is a special designated drop off area for limited mobile guests near Morrill Hall, on the south side of the Quadrangle. Here, you may drop off guests requiring assistance along with one other individual. This can be accessed by taking Virginia St. to 9th St. and turning east at the entrance to the University marked by the University sign. Ushers will be available to provide a wheelchair escort upon request. A Lyft and Uber drop off area will be located on 9th Street across from Jimmy Johns.

Local Accommodations: For our family and friends arriving from out of town we recommend these hotels in Reno:

Grand Sierra Resort
Marriott Aloft Reno

We will be staying in Truckee and recommend these accommodations in Truckee:

We have some fun plans in the works to spend time by the lake or the river on Friday, May 17th. As we get closer, we will add those plans here so that you can join us! This may include brunch or lunch and a family friendly activity. We will be staying in Truckee from Wednesday, May 15th- 18th. We’d love to soak up as much family and friends time as possible!
