Commencement

Special Needs

The Georgia Dome has passenger elevators equipped with audible tone and Braille floor level indicators.  A sign language interpreter will be stationed during the ceremony.  All restrooms are fully accessible with a private area large enough to maneuver in a wheelchair. Guests should plan to bring their own wheelchairs if necessary as they will not be provided. All lower and club levels in the Dome are wheelchair accessible. Plenty of wheelchair accessible spaces will be available on these levels as well. Parents and guests do not need to call Georgia State to make special seating arrangements.
