The University of Rhode Island Spring 2026 Commencement Weekend will be held May 15–17, 2026, on the Kingston Campus.

All ceremonies will take place in the Ryan Center and will include both bachelor’s and advanced degrees for each respective college. Graduates will have their names announced, cross the stage, and have professional photos taken during their individual college ceremony.

Registration will be required for all college ceremonies, and the number of guest tickets allotted will be based on the number of RSVPs and venue capacity. Additional information will be sent to eligible graduates through their URI email in early February.
