Caps and Gowns
There is no need to pre-order your academic apparel. However the graduation
candidate must pick up his/her apparel in the Alumni Memorial Union, Room
227, on Tuesday, May 15, between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. or Wednesday, May
16, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
There is no charge to the graduate for
academic apparel and it only takes a few minutes of time. If the candidate
cannot pick up his/her own apparel, a friend or a relative may come in his/her
place. Information needed to pick up the cap and gown is the candidate’s name,
degree, height and college.
Now that you’re about to become an alum…When picking up your cap and gown, stop by Room 252 of the AMU to register online for MU Connect, Marquette’s online alumni community. MU Connect offers free alumni e-mail addresses, an online alumni directory, career resources, alumni event information and more. Everyone who registers will automatically be entered in a drawing for prizes. The registration is sponsored by the Marquette University Alumni Association.
Please Note: Academic apparel will not be
distributed at the Bradley Center
Return of Academic Apparel
Undergraduates may retain their “keepsake” cap
and gown. All
others must return caps, gowns and hoods to the representative of the cap and
gown company immediately following the Commencement program or at the sites
of the individual graduation programs in the afternoon. (Tassels may
be retained as a keepsake if desired.)
Diplomas
Diplomas for graduates receiving bachelor’s, master’s and professional
school degrees will be distributed at the individual college and school programs. Diplomas
for Ph.D. and Ed.D. candidates will be distributed at the Bradley Center
after the Commencement ceremony in the morning.
Any special arrangements for mailing of diplomas, etc., must be made directly
with the Office
of the Registrar in Marquette Hall, Room 310. Office
hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
Graduation Announcements
An announcement from the president of the university will be sent to parents
or spouses as indicated by the graduates on forms submitted through their
deans’ offices. (There is, however, no limit to the number of
family members and friends who may attend. Tickets are
not needed.)
The traditional printed graduation announcements are available for purchase in
the Marquette
Spirit Shop or online through Traditions
USA. Please call (414) 288-3050 for assistance.
