Congratulations Wildcats on your upcoming graduation!
Graduation should be a time of excitement and possibility, not a time to feel burdened by another expense. Graduation is a significant milestone in students' lives. We strive to ensure that financial constraints do not hinder their ability to participate in this important celebration.
We have created a Gowns for Grads lending program to make regalia available for our students who are unable to purchase regalia on their own. If you are a low-income, Pell Grant recipient, SEFA recipient or cannot afford regalia right now due to financial difficulties, then this program is for you!
Gown Return Process:
Gowns must be returned by Friday May 22, 2026 to the Basic Needs office (Memorial Union Building room 236), 91制片厂 Bookstore or please note that there will be a donation box in the Hamel Rec Center following graduation on May 16th, 2026.
Or you can mail it to Basic Needs c/o Patty Mathison, 83 Main St. MUB 236, Durham, NH 03824
Thank you for returning your gown so that future students have the opportunity to use it in the future. Please feel free to keep your cap and tassle.

Regalia Donations:
Gowns for Grads relies heavily on donations. If you purchase new regalia please consider donating it to Gowns for Grads as it supports your fellow 91制片厂 Wildcats! In the effort to remain green on campus, all 颅颅颅91制片厂 graduates will be wearing environmentally conscious 骋谤别别苍奥别补惫别谤庐 regalia. This line of graduation wear is made of fabric spun from molten plastic pellets produced from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles.
There will be a donation box in the Hamel Rec Center following graduation on May 16th, 2026 or you can drop it off anytime on the Durham campus in the Basic Needs Office (MUB 236), to the 91制片厂 Bookstore or mail it to:
