Indoor graduations have a capped attendance that is dictated by the unique circumstances of each graduating company. Graduation invites are through the recruit, who will be allowed a set number of guests. There is NO trading of guest slots between recruits. Recruits will confirm their guests’ attendance on graduation week.

For those unable to attend the indoor graduation, Training Center Cape May will make every effort to stream the ceremony on Facebook live @U.S.CoastGuardTrainingCenterCapeMay. This service is provided as a courtesy and subject to change or cancellation.  

Our main gate will open to authorized graduation guests at 8:15 a.m. 

Graduation is a formal military ceremony and will begin promptly at 11 a.m. The ceremony will last for about an hour. 

After the ceremony is concluded, recruits are free to depart. If you are unable to attend the ceremony, your recruit will be provided travel arrangements to execute their orders for authorized leave and reporting to their first units.
