- New Student Welcome
All graduates participating in commencement must attend in full regalia (cap, tassel, gown, hood). The Student Life Office sent an email to all graduates on March 1 with information about purchasing your cap and gown. As of April 26th, all graduates who ordered regalia online and opted to ship to campus can pick up their items in the bookstores (see information below). If you ordered online for home delivery, you can check the status of your order here.
The Website for Ordering Academic Regalia Online has Closed
If you did not order your cap and gown online by Monday, March 25th, you can purchase items in the bookstore starting on Monday, April 29th. Contact the bookstores directly with any questions.
Helpful Tips
- Students who order with delivery to the bookstore will receive email notification when regalia arrives on campus (by May 1).
- As soon as your regalia order arrives, remove it from its packaging and hang it on a hanger to help remove any creases and wrinkles. Do not iron, launder or dry clean your gown.
- Verify that all of the regalia pieces (cap, gown, tassel, hood) arrived and are the correct color. Bachelor’s and Master’s caps and gowns are black; doctoral gowns are green with a black tam and gold tassel. The inner lining of the hood for all graduates should be green and white (Sage’s colors) and the velvet trim on the hood should correspond with your degree per this chart. If you receive any incorrect item or are missing an item from your order, you will be able to obtain the correct item from either campus bookstore after May 1.
- If you have questions about your academic regalia, please call The Bookstore (Albany campus): 518-694-7378 or m.o.s.s. books (Troy campus): 518-274-0199.
