The University of Central Oklahoma will celebrate the achievements of approximately 1,399 spring graduates during the Spring 2026 Commencement Ceremonies, May 8-9, in Central’s Hamilton Field House.

UCO President Todd G. Lamb will give remarks at each of the university’s four ceremonies.

Commencement ceremonies are scheduled as follows:

Graduates and guests attending the ceremonies are asked to arrive early, as the field house traditionally fills to capacity. All guests are required to have a ticket for entry; children under 3 do not require a ticket.

Limited parking to the west of the field house will be reserved for those with disabilities. All campus parking spaces, except those in the reserved lot to the west of the field house, will be available for attendees of the commencement ceremonies.

The ceremonies may be viewed online at streaming.uco.edu, with livestreaming beginning approximately 15 minutes before each ceremony.

Additionally, Central will livestream each commencement ceremony on UCO’s YouTube page. The YouTube livestream will capture the traditional graduate walk from Old North to Hamilton Field House, weather permitting.
