(Pittsburgh, PA) The University of Pittsburgh recently announced its plans for this year’s commencement ceremony. According to Pitt, the event will be held at Acrisure Stadium on May 3rd, starting at 3:30 p.m. Graduation has been held previously at the Petersen Events Center and PPG Paints Arena, but Pitt university officials hope this move will allow more people to attend the ceremony. More information will be sent to students who applied for graduation from the Pitt registrar’s office and April 9th is the deadline for students to register for the event.
