Hoods
|
Following a custom established in the 14th century, modern-day scholars display their academic achievements by wearing traditional regalia at the commencements and other important ceremonies. All of our university regalia strictly complies with the guidelines set forth by the Committee on Academic Customs and Ceremonies, appointed in 1959 by the American Council on Education.
In addition to the degree colors, each school generally has its own colors. If you know the colors that you need, be sure to let us know. Otherwise, let us know which school is your alma mater, and we will look up the colors for you. As each hood is custom-made according to your school colors, degree colors, and type of degree (BA, MA, or PhD), we ask that you give us about 6-8 weeks to process your order, especially during the graduation season. What if you don't have six weeks to wait? All hoods are priced by quantity.
You do not have to purchase every hood the same to receive a the discount.
For example, if you are ordering a large quantity of caps, gowns and hoods
for faculty use but require your hoods to be in many different colors
(as your faculty has graduated from different universities and holds different
degrees), you would still receive the quanity discount! What kind of hood do you need? You should purchase your hood to match the gown you have selected.
Deluxe custom quality Doctoral hoods
These hoods are available with or without piping.
Piping may be added on PhD hoods for PhD holders wishing to indicate their field of discipline. For example we could add gold piping to hood of a PhD of Science, or Light Blue piping for a PhD of Education to indicate their particular field of study since otherwise one would only be able to recognize that the person has a PhD (from their velvet), but not know what the PhD is in.
Classic Doctoral Hoods
These hoods are available with or without piping.
Master's Hoods
Bachelor's hoods Unlike Masters and Doctoral Regalia, most schools do not require hoods for Bachelor's Regalia. Nevertheless, if you do need a bachelor's hood, we would be happy to make one for you. The price would depend on the type you selected.

The cap and gown are in stock, but the hood takes 6-8 weeks to make. I need to march next month. What do I do? For customers who are in a rush, we can often help you out with our "loaner hoods". This means as follows: Let us say that you want a PhD Cap and Gown that we have in stock and can ship the same day. And you need to march in 3 weeks, but the color hood you need takes 6-8 weeks to make. What we can do is send you a substitute hood upon receipt of your payment. While this may not be the exact color you need, it is a lot better than not having a hood at all, and most people don't know the difference anyway. In the meantime, we can begin making your custom color hood. We send out your cap, gown, tassel, and loaner hood right away. You send back the loaner hood as soon as you are done with it, and then we ship you your custom hood for all future events. This arrangement has helped many faculty members who need hoods right away, but would prefer to have their own colors for the future. And we don't charge any extra for it either. Not even extra shipping. If we can help, let us know. Regalia
