Graduation Regalia

While the Campus Bookstore stocks graduation products year-round, we typically suggest graduates purchase items no more than two months in advance. This allows for date changes (tassels) and any departmental upgrades between terms.

Purchase Regalia Online

Master's Graduates and Doctoral Students, you will need to purchase the Degree Hood that corresponds with your earned diploma.

Standard frames are stocked year-round at the Campus Bookstore and may be ordered through our online website. Official Diplomas are mailed by the Registrar’s Office 3-4 weeks following graduation.
