Summer TCAT Graduation
Thursday, August 06, 2026
10:00 am
Gym

Graduation Ceremony 

Tickets

Each participating graduate may receive up to six (6) guest tickets to their ceremony. Every guest, regardless of age, MUST have a ticket to enter the ceremony. Tickets are issued for a specific ceremony time, not for a specific seat. Ticketed guests may sit in any available seat. We recommend and request that groups of guests arrive together, enter together, and sit together. We expect that all seats will be used at each ceremony, and we have not allocated "buffer seats" between groups of guests.

Location

Graduates line up in the Branch Center lobby.

All ceremonies will be in the HPF Building (Gymnasium) on the main (Amnicola Highway) campus.

Arrival Time

Graduates - Arrive 1.5 hours before the scheduled ceremony time, and come dressed in regalia (cap, gown, cords, medals, etc.)
 
Ticketed Guests
 - We aim to open the doors 30 minutes before each scheduled ceremony. This will depend on the duration of the preceding ceremony.

Duration

Ceremonies will start promptly at the published time and will likely last around 45 minutes.

Photos

Professional photographs will be taken, and you will have the opportunity to order prints through the photography company. You will receive more details at the ceremony.

Parking & Access

Graduates and guests should park in Lot P1, the Visitor Parking Lot. All ceremonies will be held in the Gymnasium (HPF) building, which is number 4 on the campus map.

Accessibility & Accommodations

If you or any of your guests have accessibility needs or wish to request accommodations, please email the Center for Access and Disability Services at [email protected] or call 423-697-4452.

Typical requests might include that you or your guests cannot navigate stairs, or that your guests need to sit in a place where they can read the live captioning. The planned route for graduates includes a few stairs into the HPF building.
