For the third consecutive year, Lindsey Wilson College will cap off its largest class in school history at spring commencement. Lindsey Wilson's commencement celebration, the 119th in school history, will be held over two days, April 26 - 27, 2024. To accommodate the large crowds, graduates have been allotted tickets for guests in attendance.

• The first ceremony will take place at 6pmCT, on Friday, April 26, in Biggers Sports Center, 360 Spickard Drive, Columbia, KY. The Friday evening event will recognize students who attended LWC via the graduate hybrid program.


• The second ceremony will take place at 10amCT on Saturday, April 27, in Biggers Sports Center. The Saturday morning event will recognize students who attended LWC on the A.P. White Campus in Columbia.


• The third ceremony will take place at 2pmCT, on Saturday, April 27, in Biggers Sports Center. The Saturday afternoon event will recognize students who attended LWC online or at one of the community campus off-site locations.

A total of 588 degrees will be conferred for the 2024 spring class. That number includes 226 undergraduate degrees and 362 graduate degrees. Combined with the 642 degrees awarded at LWC's winter commencement ceremony, the Lindsey Wilson Class of 2024 will be a record 1,230 graduates - the most in the 120-year history of The United Methodist-affiliated college. To put that number into perspective, the College awarded a record 743 in 2023.

The ceremony will be shown on closed-circuit television in the Norma & Glen Hodge Center for Discipleship, 402 Helen Flatt Drive, Columbia, KY.
