Faculty regalia rental deadlines
Personalized regalia orders are scheduled to be ordered from Jostens . Any orders placed after will be put on a waitlist and be filled using extra UNM PhD regalia in the closest available size.
If you have RSVPed to events but would like to cancel your regalia rental, please cancel your regalia orders by for the best chance at successful cancellation. We will do our best to cancel your order with Jostens or reuse your order to fill waitlisted regalia requests, but if we are unable to do so your departmental convocations may still be charged for your regalia if you do not attend Commencement.
All faculty participants and Marshals for the main University Commencement should use this form to sign up. If you plan to attend a departmental convocation, you should RSVP for it through the convocations section. Please take the time to RSVP for all events you plan to attend. Even with multiple RSVPs, only one regalia rental will be generated per person, and having accurate RSVP information is important for planning, record-keeping, and cost-sharing processes.
Full academic regalia is required for faculty attending Commencement. If you order regalia here and attend Commencement your regalia rental fees will be covered by the Office of the University Secretary. The price to rent regalia is set by Jostens and varies, but is around $70 for a full set of regalia. If you fail to attend Commencement after ordering regalia here, we will attempt to bill your department.
Regalia rentals will be available for you to pick up at the bookstore roughly a week before Commencement. Platform members' and VIPs' regalia will be waiting for you at the event. If you order regalia you will receive email communications in the weeks leading up to the event regarding your regalia pickup time and location.
