Academic regalia is required for graduates to participate in the Commencement ceremonies on May 19, 2024. Regalia includes cap and tassel, gown, and appropriate hood for the earned degree.

For those who did not pre-order their regalia, additional regalia sets will be available from the Bookstore between May 6 and May 19.

Cost and Distribution

Graduate student regalia is available for $50. Some graduate programs will be fully subsidizing regalia; the cost on the ordering site will appear as $0 for the regalia. Approved regalia is available through Balfour in partnership with the Brandeis Bookstore. “Ship to School” orders will be distributed by the Brandeis Bookstore in the Shapiro Campus Center from May 6 to May 18.
