Download and complete the order form for RENTING your tam and gown; a cap measuring tape is available in the Office of Student Affairs. Attach a personal check or money order in the amount of $48.00, made out to University Cap & Gown, to the form and submit both to the Office of Student Affairs as soon as possible but no later than May 14. A $10.00 late charge will be added to all orders placed after that date.
Tams and gowns must be RETURNED IN THE ORIGINAL BAG to the Office of Student Affairs no later than Monday, June 7. The Student Affairs alcove area will be open on Sunday afternoon following Commencement should you wish to return your regalia at that time. The hood will be provided at the ceremonies and is yours to keep. Contact Kathy Alvarez (6-2285) if you have questions.
Faculty
Academic regalia is required. Faculty who do not own regalia should rent regalia from University Cap & Gown, either individually or through your Department Administrator. It has been our practice in recent years to wear tams instead of mortarboards. Return the rented regalia (gowns, hoods and tams) in the original box to University Cap & Gown, clearly marked with your name, on the day after the ceremony.
University Cap & Gown also sells new and used regalia. If you decide after the ceremony that you want to purchase the regalia you rented, the rental fee will be applied to the purchase price.
