Homecoming Registration

Attendance & On-campus Parking Capacity Reached

We've reached maximum capacity for Bowie State University's Homecoming day. If you've registered for campus access and would like to attend the Homecoming game, you can purchase tickets at the ticket booth, located in front of the Leonidas S. James Physical Education Complex, on November 1, 2025.

On-campus parking is no longer available. It’s encouraged for Homecoming Day attendees to utilize free satellite parking, the MARC Train or ride sharing options such as Uber, Lyft or a taxi/cab service. Learn more.

Homecoming is a time to celebrate Bowie State University and connect with students, alumni and community members near and far. As we welcome everyone back for this year’s festivities, we’re committed to ensuring a safe, memorable and family-friendly experience on campus.

Anyone wishing to access campus on Homecoming Day – Saturday, November 1 – must register for campus access by no later than Friday, October 31. Please register as soon as possible due to limited campus capacity.
- BSU students living on campus do not need to register for campus access.
If you purchase a Homecoming game football ticket, you do not need to register. Your football ticket will serve as your campus registration. Please purchase football tickets as soon as possible.
- BSU students can claim one free ticket with their Bulldog ID card.

Registration allows us to provide important safety information and updates to attendees before, during and after Homecoming. Knowing who will be on-site makes it easier to account for everyone in case of an emergency and enables quick communication during emergencies. Registration also helps ensure that our campus doesn’t exceed safe limits, which is crucial for crowd control and emergency evacuations, and it can help identify any unauthorized individuals, thereby enhancing overall security.

As a reminder, all faculty, staff and students are required to have their Bowie Bulldog ID Card visible while on campus. Please note the BSU Department of Athletics has a clear bag policy for all athletic events.

We appreciate your support and understanding as we implement these public safety measures. Thank you for helping us keep Homecoming safe, welcoming and fun for the whole family.
