It is compulsory for all graduands to wear the University academic dress at their ceremony. Graduation Attire is our official gown hire company and all gowns should be hired directly through them.
Gowns need to be booked in advance of the ceremony using The University’s gown supplier Ede and Ravenscroft’s online booking system. Before you start your booking, please make sure you know your head circumference in centimetres plus your chest and height measurements
Ede and Ravenscroft will be located at Carrow Road on the day of your graduation so that you can pick up your gown, hood and cap. The Ede and Ravenscroft team will also help you to put these on correctly. You can collect your gown and have your photographs taken by Ede and Ravenscroft at any time during the day of your graduation
If you come to your graduation celebration without a gown, or if you are wearing clothes which the graduation ushers don’t consider appropriate to the occasion, you may not be able to cross the stage in recognition of your award.
If you are a current student at the University and you feel that meeting the cost of gown hire will be very difficult for you, you can apply for hardship funding.
Ede and Ravenscroft, our robemakers, are providing a photography service at the football ground. You’ll need to order photos from them in advance – please see the flyer attached to the email.
Ede and Ravenscroft will also take a photo of you when you cross the stage at your graduation. These photos will be available to purchase on the day, and online afterwards.
