GradPass is an electronic version of the traditional stage card used to facilitate ceremony display and/or check-in graduates. GradPasses are distributed via the MarchingOrder website and can be scanned from a phone or printed copy. GradPass eliminates the time-consuming and personnel-heavy process of printed card distribution.

We recommend that you verify that each graduate has a valid GradPass prior to line-up. In addition to visually checking, use the MO Ticket Scan App or MO Director software to scan each graduate as they arrive.
Graduates without a valid GradPass should be directed to the Graduate Help Desk and given a pre-printed backup label or be added to the ceremony using a blank card. See the “Graduate Help Desk” section for more details.

When scanning from graduate phones, consider the following factors:

If you are using Graduate Cards at your ceremony, you can distribute cards ahead of the ceremony date (at a graduate event or by mail) or distribute them on the day of your ceremony. If you distribute cards prior to your ceremony date, request a duplicate set of graduate cards for graduates that do not bring their card.

All graduates that were included on your graduate list when it was processed for printing will have a graduate card. Graduates with a pre-printed Graduate Card may continue to the graduate line-up area after checking in.

Graduates without a pre-printed card should be directed to the Graduate Help Desk where they can receive a blank card and be added to the MarchingOrder software.
