UNO now has customized UNO Blue regalia for the commencement ceremony. Regalia becomes available for summer and fall graduates after the Grad Fair, which is held the second week of October.
Doctoral students only - While Doctoral students must purchase their own tam, the charge of renting the doctoral robe will be covered by the University for doctoral candidates, and their doctoral hood will be given to the candidates by the University during the commencement ceremony. Please contact the UNO Bookstore to order your robe and tam.
Undergraduate and Master’s students - The graduation regalia for Undergraduate and Master’s students on the graduation list is free of charge, and will be available at the UNO Bookstore. Graduation regalia will be available in the Bookstore after the Grad Fair.
Bookstore personnel will need to know your height and weight along with the type of degree you are receiving such as a bachelor or master, and your major. Graduation regalia will NOT be available at the commencement ceremony!
You may contact the UNO Bookstore by emailing uno@bkstr.com or phone at 504-280-6373.
Candidates may wear honor cords from authorized academic honor societies. Candidates will not be able to participate in the commencement ceremony if academic apparel is deemed inappropriate by graduation staff.
Academic apparel should be worn to the commencement site. Military dress uniform may be worn in lieu of academic regalia.
Please do not bring cell phones, umbrellas, purses or other items of extra apparel with you to the UNO Lakefront Arena as you are not permitted to carry or wear these in the Procession.
