Regalia (Cap and Gown) Information

Regalia is required in order to participate in the commencement ceremony.

Order your custom academic regalia exclusively from Herff Jones no later than April 19 to avoid additional fees. It's tailored to you and the degree you've earned. Regalia must be paid for at the time of ordering and will be shipped directly to the graduate at no additional cost. Your regalia fee will need to be paid when you place your order. We encourage graduates to order early.

Beginning April 20 graduates can purchase their regalia directly from the University Campus Bookstore. All purchases must be made in-person and an additional fee will apply. Select items are not guaranteed to be in stock and quantities are limited.

Graduates are allowed to decorate the top of your graduation cap. Please make sure that it will not block the view of the guest sitting behind you, and it must be in good taste. Caps decorated in poor taste will not be allowed.
