Step 4
Academic Dress

All graduands who attend their graduation ceremony must wear the appropriate academic attire - gown, with hood or stole (or both), and mortar board or bonnet.

The University of Adelaide's Academic Dress Rules prescribe the academic attire for all awards.

You may view all awards and the details of their associated attire here.

The organisations listed below are familiar with the University's academic dress regulations and can assist with your hire or purchase needs. Early application should be made for hire of academic dress to ensure that the correct attire is available for you on the day.
