Steps to register

1. You must complete this Senior Days participation waiver to make any ticket purchases or reservations. This will be available in the spring semester.
2. If you designate that you are 21+ years old, you will be asked to sign an additional waiver involving alcohol consumption, whether you plan to consume or not at one of the events.
3. If you design that you are interested in an off-campus trip, you will be asked to sign an additional waiver focusing on off-campus trips. We recommend signing this whether you plan to join one of the off-campus trips or not in case you change your mind later!

Reserving your wristband

1. Your wristband is reserved when you complete your waiver above.

Picking up your wristband

You will be able to pick up your wristband starting an hour before each signature event and throughout the event.

I lost my wristband! What can I do?

Eligible students will only receive one wristband. If you misplace your wristband, you will be able to replace your wristband for $30. Stop by a wristband tent to talk with a staff member.

Who are the invited participants?

All Senior Days events are closed events. You can only sign up and participate in Senior Days events if you are an undergraduate graduating senior, a December 2024 graduate, an August 2024 graduate, or are planning to graduate in December 2025. Other undergraduate class years, graduate/professional students, family, partners or significant others, and community members will not be allowed to attend our free events or as +1s for ticketed events.

If you graduated early and identify with the graduating class, and have not been receiving communications from Senior Days or Campus Activities, please email seniordays@cornell.edu with your situation.

RSVPs for free events will go live on in May. Links to each of the RSVP pages will be listed in the event descriptions found on this page.

Although we try our best to accommodate, we are aware that we do not have enough spaces available for everyone that wants to attend a ticketed event during Senior Days. If you are unable to secure a ticket for any of our ticketed events, we hope you are able to join us for our free events on campus where all are welcome!

How can I refund or transfer my tickets?

Transferring free events: You can remove your reservation yourself for free events on CampusGroups by going to the event page and canceling your RSVP. Please do this if you can't attend, especially for events with limited capacity and waitlists. The Senior Days Committee will fill the available space.

Transferring paid tickets: You cannot transfer your paid ticket to another student. You can only purchase tickets for yourself and your +1.

Ticket refunds: Click here to request a refund. We will only review refund requests until Sunday April 14 11:59 PM EST. After this date, all sales are final.

Event waitlists

Waitlist for paid ticketed events: If you were unable to secure a ticket for a paid event, you can request to be added to a waitlist here. If tickets open up, we will reach out. You will have 24 hours to respond before we go to the next in line.

Waitlist for free events: All free events on CampusGroups offer a waitlist slot. For most events, we encourage folks on the waitlist to attend day-of as there are often no-shows. If there are no-shows, we can offer space to join. If spaces open up before the event, we will take folks off the waitlist on a first-come, first-served basis. You do not need to complete the waitlist form above. If you have a ticket for a free event and no longer are able to join, please remove yourself from the list so we can best accommodate your peers.

Alcohol & Other Drugs

Senior Days offers a few events with alcohol. The legal drinking age is 21 and valid government-issued photo IDs are required to present at all events. If you drink alcohol, plan ahead for safety and follow these tips.

Cornell’s Student Code of Conduct applies every day of the year, including during Senior Days. If you see someone who requires medical attention due to an alcohol or drug-related emergency, do the right thing and call 9-1-1.

The Good Samaritan protocol/law helps protect you (and the person needing assistance) from judicial / legal consequences if you call for help.

Weather (Severe Weather Guidelines)

Plan ahead by checking the weather for your Senior Days events. For all outdoor events, we will be monitoring events and emailing registered attendees of any changes or cancelations. Please monitor your email prior to the event if the weather looks like an issue for your outdoor event. In most cases, outside events will not be rescheduled. In case of inclement weather, please see the Cornell University Severe Weather Guidelines.
