Due to capacity constraints, each graduating student may bring up to 2 guests. If you wish to invite additional guests, you can coordinate with fellow graduates from the same ceremony to register your guest under their allocation if they have extra tickets available.

Yes, you have to RSVP and register your guests before the deadline.

You can register your guests in the same link you used to register yourself via IE connects.

All the information is available on IE connects, on this website, and it will also be sent to your IE email account.

Please make sure you register for the right ceremony.

You will have the chance to modify your guests' names 3 weeks before the ceremony by accessing that same IE connects form you used for registration.

You can obtain them by requesting them from your peers who are attending the same event as you (date and time) and who will not be using theirs. In order for this to work, you must ask them to list your guest as theirs on the registration form. A few weeks before the graduation, if there are still seats available, registration will be opened for more guests on a first come first served basis until full capacity is reached.

No. All events are conducted in English and there is no interpretation service.

All attendees must be registered for graduation. Closer to the date of the event, each student will receive an invitation (QR code) granting their guests access to the ceremony. QR codes are sent to the students' IE email account, and they are responsible for distributing the QR codes among their guests.

If you need an invitation letter for your guests to get the VISA, please contact student services at Student.Services@ie.edu with the following information:
- The family member/members information (name, nationality, passport number)
- Their relation to you (parents/siblings/children)
- Consulate where they will apply for their visas

*IE can only write visa letters for immediate family members, and they
must be requested preferably 1 month in advance.

There will be a cloakroom where suitcases can be stored, only if they are hand luggage.

You will be able to leave your stroller in the cloakroom. The deposit system will be the same as a normal coat. When you leave the stroller, you will be given a ticket in exchange. You can go back to the stroller as many times as you need to, you just need to show the ticket each time you do so. Once you leave, you can hand over the ticket and the stroller will be given back to you.

On the day of your graduation event, there will be a booth where you can pick up your cap and gown. It will be located on campus, in the private area for graduates.
