Online orders for virtual Commencement 2020 are now open. Order by November 16 to get the best deal; rental prices from November 17 until orders close on November 22 are increased by $75. You can find the order link here.

NOTE: If you already have academic apparel that you rented in anticipation of a Commencement ceremony in May, please feel free to keep it through the virtual Commencement on Saturday, December 19. Then, please return your gown (and hood if you’re a graduate degree recipient) to Herff Jones in the provided postage-paid packaging by Thursday, December 31, 2020. If you plan to return to campus and take part in the May 2021 Commencement, rent-free gowns (and hoods for graduate students) will be provided for all students who rented in 2020. Keep your cap, tassel, and (if you’re an undergraduate degree recipient) Stole of Gratitude and remember to bring them to campus in May.

Indiana University is pleased to provide Commencement apparel free of charge for participating faculty members and faculty marshals. All apparel must be returned directly after Commencement.

Faculty members wishing to purchase IU apparel should contact Herff Jones. Please note that apparel purchases can take several weeks to fulfill, especially during Commencement season.
