The ceremony will include keynote address by Lieutenant General Thomas S. Vandal, Commanding General of the Eighth Army. LTG Vandal is also the Chief of Staff of United Nations Command.

In addition to the ceremony itself, there will be a post-commencement reception held at Dragon Hill Lodge, which is located across the street from Seoul American High School, beginning around 3:15 p.m.

Due to the limited space at the event, we ask that each graduate brings a maximum of four guests to the ceremony and reception.
