ACADEMIC REGALIA
All degree candidates will process with Widener University School of Law hoods and tams. Academic regalia is provided by the law school. The shipment of academic regalia is scheduled to arrive by the April graduation meetings.

Gowns and invitations/announcements can be picked up at the following times:

Tuesday, April 14 5:00 p.m. – 5:40 p.m.
Wednesday, April 15 12:00 p.m. – 12:40 p.m.

You are encouraged to check for the correct size of your cap, gown, and hood early. All pieces (you may keep the tassel) must be returned immediately following the conclusion of the ceremony. If you leave with the regalia, you will be charged a rental fee; after three days, you will be charged for the cost of the regalia. Tables for cap, gown, and hood return will be set up in the back hallway of the Forum.
DEGREE CLEARANCE
Pass/fail information for all graduates is due by Friday, May 15, 2015. Actual grades will not be available until mid-June, which is sufficient time to certify graduates for the July bar examination. The Commencement Program reflects honors and awards based on fall grades. As part of the requirements for graduation, each graduate must file a petition to graduate. Also, each graduate must have financial clearance from the Bursar’s Office.
INVITATIONS, ANNOUNCEMENTS AND TICKETS
Each graduate will receive a generic packet of 10 invitations and 10 admission tickets. The Registrar’s Office will manage distribution of any tickets surrendered by graduates. Distribution of invitation and ticket packets will occur at the graduation meetings in April.
