Disability Accommodations

Commencement Disability Parking/Seating
Parking for persons with disabilities will be available in the Perdue Hall parking lot. Perdue Hall is located on Atlanta Student Movement Blvd. (Fair Street) and the parking lot is located behind the building.

Vehicles with a state-issued disability placard will need to enter the campus from Joseph E. Lowery Blvd. The street will be closed to thru traffic, so you will need to show your placard upon entering the campus foraccess. To access the parking lot, you will turn left onto Euharlee Street. The parking area will be clearly marked and located on your right. Spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis. A permanent or temporary state-issued disability placard is required to park in the designated parking spaces.

Please plan to arrive early as reserved parking is not guaranteed.

Transportation carts will be available throughout the campus to provide assistance in moving about.

Venue Entry for Persons with Disabilities
There will be a special entrance for persons with disabilities, located on Atlanta Student Movement Blvd. (Fair Street) directly across from Perdue Hall. Loading and unloading is available at the gate, however, vehicles must proceed to the parking area.

All guests must have a ticket. After check-in and clearance, you and one "buddy" will be directed to the area reserved for persons with disabilities. All other guests must sit in their color-coded section.

Because all seating is color-coded, please be sure your graduate obtains the specific color for persons with disabilities and their buddy. We will have ushers and crowd control personnel on hand to direct you to the proper seating area, based on your color-coded ticket.

**Note: Because of tightened security, there will be prescribed hours of arrival and entry. Once you gain entry into the venue no re-entry will be permitted.

Check back for details at this site the week of Commencement.

Baccalaureate Disability Parking
The first floor of the Parking Deck will be held for persons with disabilities until the line of march begins. Please enter through the guard's booth off Lee Street for quick access.
