Class of 2025, save the date for San Francisco State University’s 124th Commencement, which will be Friday, May 23, 2025, at Oracle Park, home of the San Francisco Giants.

“I look forward to Commencement each year,” said San Francisco State President Lynn Mahoney. “I love celebrating the success of our students as they embark on their next journey. I stand proudly on the sidelines knowing we’ve prepared them to take on the problems of tomorrow.”

Commencement Photos
GradImages® will be at Oracle Park taking pictures of graduates with their diploma. Graduates will find a card from GradImages® at their seat. Graduates can fill out the card with contact information and bring it with them during the diploma procession. The card will be handed to a GradImages® representative when instructed. Students can pre-register here with GradImages® prior to Commencement by filling out their information and taking a selfie.
During the diploma procession graduates will be guided from their seats to the diploma stages by ambassadors. As graduates process they will be handed their diploma cover and will then cross in front of the gold SF State backdrop where they will be shown on the Oracle Park scoreboard and have their picture taken by GradImages®.
