CUSTOM REGALIA IS NON-RETURNABLE


Master's Cap & Gown vs. Custom Regalia Purchase vs. Regalia Rental

If you are planning to continue teaching at another university, we recommend purchasing your regalia. The custom gowns are designed to last a lifetime, so it’s a one-time investment and will save you from going through a rental process each semester. A good option for those who cannot make the investment right now is to purchase part of the regalia, and piece-meal your way into purchasing the entire set. Keep the hood from your initial hooding ceremony for a great keepsake!

The last consideration is timing. When you purchase a gown, they are custom-made to order and will take 9-10 weeks to arrive. Rentals typically are available on a shorter timeline.

Masters students are not required to purchase custom regalia, but must have either a Graduation Cap & Gown or Custom Regalia for Commencement.

Please email Michelle Mare and Stephen Graydon with any questions.
