Students
Students can now rent or purchase regalia through BU Barnes & Noble! Please keep in mind the deadlines outlined on this page, most notably April 1 as the drop-dead date to order doctoral regalia.
If you are being hooded by a family member, mentor, sibling or friend who is NOT on the BUSM faculty, you will need to rent doctoral regalia for your hooder by April 10.

- Search “Boston University” and select “Boston University” once the result populates
- Select “Cap & Gown” in the top toolbar and place your order
All students must complete the Commencement Questionnaire by February 4 so BUSM can project attendance and confirm faculty regalia orders.
