To watch on Facebook Live, you don’t need a Facebook account to watch the ceremonies. While on the site during the event, do not click on any links in the comments directing users to view the ceremony! Scammers will sometimes post misleading links to steal payment information and Herzing University never charges to view commencement ceremonies. The streaming will start after a few minutes of introductory messages.
Watch on Facebook with Family and Friends
Your graduation ceremony will be shared on Facebook Live so you can invite all your family and friends, including those who can’t attend in person! Before the ceremony, make sure you:
- Share the link to your campus Facebook page with your friends and family so that they can watch the ceremony from their homes. You can also share the Facebook Live ceremony link with your friends and family, which will open the ceremony directly.
- Start a personalized Facebook watch party! When you start a watch party, you can view any public video on Facebook in real-time with a group of your friends. Check out this link for more information about setting up a Facebook watch party.
- Have your family and friends give you a shout-out in the comments during the ceremony!
*You do not need a Facebook account to watch the ceremony. The ceremony is accessible to the public.*
