Graduate Gateway

Graduate Gateway

Graduate Gateway is designed for students who are in their final year on campus. Through our events, we celebrate the hard work and accomplishments of our students and connect them with resources they will use as alumni.

Boilermaker Bucket List

Memory-making activities every Boilermaker should experience before they graduate and an introduction to the many ways they can stay connected as a new alum.

Caps-Off Celebration

A collection of online resources paired with an in-person event that features a light lunch, door prizes and giveaways, and a chance to explore ways to stay involved with Purdue in the future. Held late each fall and spring semester.

Final Countdown

A weeklong celebration that features a variety of fun campus events like karaoke, games, outdoor activities, and photo opportunities at iconic campus landmarks. Held the week of finals each December and the week after finals each May.

Commencement Open House

Open the weekend of commencement at the Boilermaker Station Welcome Center, these free events offer students and families a chance to celebrate graduation by snapping a family photo, picking up alumni swag, and learning about ways to stay connected to Purdue.
