PAU Commencement 2026
Commencement at Palo Alto University is more than a ceremony, it’s a celebration of your journey, your achievements, and the bright future ahead!
Palo Alto University’s 2026 Commencement Ceremony will take place on Saturday, June 13 at 10:00 a.m. at the Mountain Winery, Saratoga, CA. The ceremony typically lasts approximately 2 hours, and we expect the program to conclude around 12:00 p.m.
We previously shared a guest limit; however, after further coordination with the venue, we’re pleased to share that you may bring all of your guests. At this time, we are asking all graduates to complete this form and provide an accurate guest count so we can accommodate all students and their loved ones comfortably.
All eligible graduates should complete the Intent to Graduate form by April 1 to be considered eligible to walk in the 2026 commencement ceremony. Communications to eligible graduates will begin the first week of April.
