Each graduate who has indicated his/her attendance will be given 2 invitation cards for parents/guests. Each valedictorian and award winner will be given 4 and 2 VIP cards respectively instead of the 2 invitation cards. These invitation cards are given out when you collect the academic dress at the Multi-Purpose Sports Hall.
As a courtesy to other audience members, infants in arms and children below 6 years will not be admitted into the UCC Hall. They may view the live webcast of the ceremony in Function Room 1 (University Cultural Centre, Level 1) instead. Guests will need to register at the Information Counter for an admission card to Function Room 1 and due to limited seating capacity to the viewing room, admission is on first-come-first-serve basis.
The package (one Graduate Attendance Card and two Parents/Guests Invitation Cards) will be given at the time when you collect the academic dress at the Multi-Purpose Sports Hall. If you have not ordered the academic dress, please also come at the scheduled time and inform the staff that you only require the package of Attendance/Invitation Cards. They will assist and show you to the appropriate booth.
Please liaise with NUS Multi-Purpose Co-operative Society Ltd at if you are not able to come at the scheduled time.

Due to the limited seating capacity of the University Cultural Centre Hall, we are unable to issue you any other invitation cards. You may request for additional invitation cards, if available, at the Information Counter that is located at UCC Foyer on the day of your ceremony.
Graduates are to submit their request for additional invitation cards when registering attendance via the Online Attendance Registration system. If there are spare invitation card(s) for the ceremony you are attending, you will be allocated additional invitation card(s) by ballot.
We usually invite more graduates to each ceremony than the maximum number that the UCC Hall can hold. Thus, there will be no extra cards if most of the invited graduates are attending.
