Hi Charity,
UM-Missoula allows any student to attend Commencement. Our ceremony is too big to create any formal order of students. Our Commencement bulletin only contains graduates of the previous autumn, current spring, and following summer. A student graduating in autumn 2015 would not appear in our bulletin, but they are still allowed to walk. We think more and more students are attending Commencement early so they do not have to make the trip back to Missoula the following spring.

Subject: Fall 2015 participating in ceremonies
HI all,
For those of you that have only one commencement ceremony a year, how many allow graduates for future fall semesters to participate in ceremonies (i.e. Fall 2015 graduates wanting to participate in the in the 14-15 ceremony instead of the 15-16 ceremony). We have seen an increase in these appeals this year and I was curious what other campuses are experiencing with commencement appeals?
Just curious of your approaches to this request.
Thanks
Charity
