It's Time to Celebrate YOU!

Senior Week is a beloved tradition at Ithaca College, honoring graduating seniors as they transition from students to proud alumni. Held each year after classes conclude and before Commencement, this special time offers a lineup of events designed for community-building and fun. Senior Week brings the class together to reflect on their time at IC while creating lasting memories with friends and classmates.
