Join us for AIU’s Commencement Ceremony

The parts of the AIU regalia for commencement ceremony. The black mortarboard (cap). The blue and white tassel with AIU charm. The hood is for Master's grad only and the color is dependent on the program. The programmatic stole with program name and AIU seal is worn around the neck. The black gown with AIU seal on lapel.

The Official AIU Regalia With Cap And Gown Is Required To Participate In The Ceremony

ONCE REGISTRATION OPENS, graduates can purchase the cap and gown regalia package for their degree from our official regalia and graduation memorabilia partner, Jostens. The regalia package orders include a cap, black gown with AIU Seal, programmatic stole, and an AIU tassel. Master’s graduates also receive a hood. If ordering the package, there is no need to order a separate stole or tassel unless you want an extra.

The AIU Shop For Jostens Will Be Opened At The Same Time Ceremony Registration Opens

Please be advised that if you purchased another brand/type of cap & gown for personal use, it will not be approved for wear at the ceremony. The "official" AIU regalia through Jostens is required.

Special Regalia Circumstances

• If a graduate owns an AIU gown from the Associate program and is graduating from a Bachelor’s program, the same gown can be worn. The appropriate programmatic stole must be purchased through Jostens.
• Master’s graduates who own a cap and gown from an undergraduate program, must order the Master’s regalia to receive the correct Master’s gown and hood.
