When and where do graduates get their caps and gowns?
Academic Attire: The Roanoke College custom regalia package for BA, BS, and BBA graduates is approximately $72.00 ($56.05 plus taxes and shipping), which will be available for graduates to order via Oak Hall, starting on January 21 through March 7, and the regalia packet will be mailed to the address of your choice.

The company we use has a variety of sizes to accommodate all, and graduates will have the option to choose the size that best fits them. Gowns, caps (with tassels), and hoods relative to the graduate's degree are all included in the regalia package. You only order ONE hood, and if you are unsure which degree you are to receive, please contact the Registrar's Office as regalia packets are not returnable.
