Ticketing
As of April 1, all graduates who have been cleared for graduation will receive a ticketing email in their 水果派 email. Graduates will receive 10 tickets for guests, plus one ticket for themselves. Follow the instructions in your ticketing email to claim your tickets. The deadline for claiming tickets is April 26.
Children 2 and younger do not need tickets, but need to be seated on an adult’s lap. All other children need individual tickets.
Additional tickets
At the time of registration for your tickets, there will be an option to be put on a waiting list for up to two additional tickets. Please note that these extra tickets are not guaranteed. We need to make sure all graduates have the opportunity to claim their allotted tickets. We will not be able to notify students of the extra tickets until a week prior to the ceremony.

Mass for the Graduates
You've made it! Let's pray together in gratitude for your Mount experience and celebrate you going out to "light the world" with your unstoppable presence!
The Commencement Mass will be held on Saturday, May 9, 2026, at 3:00 PM in St. Joseph Chapel at the Carondelet Center Chapel (Chalon Campus).
Graduates should arrive by 2:00 PM in their academic regalia (robe and hood—no caps). The procession line-up will begin promptly at 2:30 PM.
We warmly invite graduates to bring family and friends to this beautiful celebration.
Following the Mass, a reception at The Circle will include the Crowning of Mary and a special pinning ceremony honoring the mothers of our graduates.
