Academic Attire

All graduates must order caps and gowns online at www.herffjones.com/college/holyfamily by the Monday, March 18 deadline. A Graduation Fact Sheet has been mailed to all graduates explaining the procedure. Academic attire will not be available at the Academy of Music. Online ordering is for the convenience of graduates and assures all graduates of proper fitting attire.

Caps and gowns can be picked up in the Holy Family University Bookstore starting Thursday, April 25. The Bookstore is open Monday – Thursday from 9 am - 6 pm, and Friday from 9 am - 4 pm. Caps and gowns will be available during regular business hours throughout the semester. Caps and gowns will not be available at Academy of Music on May 18.

Attire Graduates should pick up attire as early as possible to assure proper fitting. Attire that does not fit may require re-ordering, which could take up to two weeks for delivery. Tassels will be distributed upon Commencement check-in at the Academy of Music.

All graduates participating in the Commencement Ceremony must wear full academic attire: cap with tassel, gown, and hood. Only honor cords and academic medals that are officially issued by the University are permissible.

For the convenience of graduates from the Division of Extended Learning, the Bookstore management will distribute academic attire and sell diploma frames and other graduation items at Holy Family—Woodhaven on Monday, April 15 from 5 – 6:30 pm.
