CAP AND GOWN

Each degree candidate should arrange to obtain the official University cap and gown well in advance of the commencement ceremony. The costs for the caps and gowns vary according to the academic degree conferred.

The official graduation caps & gowns may be obtained from:

Barnes and Nobles University Bookstore
Located in the Lowman Student Center
Phone: 936-294-1862

Degree candidates must make sure all items are included with the cap and gown order, including tassels, prior to the date of commencement.

The traditional black cap and gown is required to participate in the commencement ceremony.

A tassel should also be purchased ahead of time.  Students receiving their master's and doctoral degrees must purchase the appropriate hood in order to participate in the commencement ceremony. 

See Regalia to learn more about the hoods to be purchased for the master’s and doctoral candidates.
