Order Cap and Gown

Graduation announcements, class rings, and diploma frames can also be ordered at the UNF Bookstore or online with Herff Jones

UNF understands that the responsibility for sustainability lies in each and every one of us. Our actions, while small, make up part of the overall footprint left by all beings on this planet. In an effort to decrease that footprint, we are using the Herff Jones ClassRental™ caps and gowns for commencement regalia. These are premium-quality gowns which are cleaned, inspected and packaged after each use. Using rental gowns positively affects eventual landfill usage as well as requiring less material and energy than creating new gowns for each commencement. For more information, go to HerffJonesBetterWorld.com.

 

Undergraduate students should wear their tassels on the RIGHT side of their cap.

Graduate students should wear their tassels on the LEFT side of their cap.
