How to place your cap and gown order

  1. Visit the Jostens site. 
  2. Click ‘Select a Collection’ from the dropdown menu on the Cap and Gown page.

  3. Click the first option, ‘Student’, unless your specific degree is listed immediately below the ‘Student’ option.

    The Bachelor of Science for Criminal Justice and Spanish; Healthcare Studies and Spanish; Geography; as well as the CAGS degrees are listed individually in the ‘Select a Collection’ dropdown because they have unique items. Only select these dropdown degree options if they apply for your order. All M.Ed. degrees select “Education” for your program.

  4. Click the link under the appropriate cap and gown image. Undergraduate students select ‘Bachelors,’ while graduate students select ‘Masters.’ 
  5. Use the Gown Fit options available. Click the ‘Height’ dropdown to select how tall you are. Regardless of the type of shoes or size of the heels you are wearing, the gown length is mid-calf on your leg, based on your height.
  6. Use the ‘Weight’ box to give an approximate number in pounds. Gowns are loose-fitting based on height and weight for comfort and ease of movement.
  7. Use the ‘Major/Curriculum’ dropdown to select your academic major or program, if applicable. 
  8. Consult the ceremony date and time listing if you need to verify your program or major. Double majors choose your primary program/major. Refer to your Degree Tracker to verify your primary major. All M.Ed. degrees select “Education” for your program.
  9. Select the black ‘Add to Cart’ button.
  10. Type the graduate’s name in the ‘Student/Recipient First Name’ and ‘Student/Recipient Last Name’ boxes.
  11. Click the white ‘Check Out’ button to complete your order. There is no charge for the cap, gown, tassel and hood, as applicable.
