Fordham University Commencement Central: Graduation Regalia & Accessories
Commencement at Fordham University is more than a milestone—it is the embodiment of the Ram spirit. It’s the culmination of afternoons on Edwards Parade, late nights in Walsh Library, traditions beneath the clock tower of Keating Hall, and celebrating Ram victories with the ringing of the Victory Bell. As you walk across the stage in your cap and gown, the towers of Keating Hall rising above Edwards Parade and the roar of your family and classmates filling the campus, it is not just about receiving a degree—it is about stepping fully into the maroon legacy that unites generations of Rams.
Bachelor’s Regalia Set for Fordham University
Fordham bachelor’s graduates cross the stage in the traditional matte black gown, sustainably tailored from recycled fibers, with discreet side pockets and a neckline loop to secure stoles. A hidden front hook allows for either a traditional closed silhouette or an open-front style, giving you freedom to showcase your outfit beneath. The bachelor cap and gown set for Fordham University includes a mortarboard cap and tassel with a year charm, specific to your Fordham school requirements. Designed to be lightweight and breathable, the gown celebrates graduates from Fordham College at Rose Hill, Fordham College at Lincoln Center, the Gabelli School of Business, the School of Professional and Continuing Studies, and programs across campus, all while reflecting Fordham University’s enduring commitment to sustainability.
Doctoral Regalia for Fordham University
Doctoral graduates step into Fordham’s most prestigious attire: tailored crepe maroon gowns accented with gold piping, plush black velvet front panels, and three black velvet chevrons on each bell sleeve. The doctoral hood, lined in Fordham’s signature colors of rich maroon satin, is trimmed in blue velvet to denote the Ph.D. discipline. The ensemble is completed with an eight-sided black velvet tam, adjustable for fit, and a gold bullion tassel for an added touch of prestige. Each regalia set includes a garment bag and carrying case, supporting not just commencement but a lifetime of ceremonial use, from hooding in the Rose Hill Gymnasium and commencement on Edwards Parade to future convocations and commencements.
Why CAPGOWN Over the Fordham Store?
Unlike the Fordham Store, where regalia can be costly and take weeks to be delivered, CAPGOWN fulfills bachelor’s regalia in just one business day—at about half the Fordham Store price. Backed by thousands of verified 5-star reviews from Rams nationwide, our regalia are praised for craftsmanship, comfort, and durability that last well beyond the ceremony. Each regalia set adheres to Fordham’s commencement standards, making CAPGOWN the trusted alternative source of regalia for Fordham graduates. When you wear your regalia from CAPGOWN, you can be sure that you will be among fellow Rams who have taken graduation photos beneath the towers of Keating Hall and across Edwards Parade and crossed the stage with family and friends cheering them on.
Rams can also extend their milestone with diploma frames embossed with the Fordham University seal—the perfect way to showcase years of dedication. Many choose custom tote bags, alumni keepsakes, and New York City memorabilia that carry the spirit of Fordham into their professional careers.
Each spring, Rams ask the same questions on r/Fordham: “Where’s the best place to get my cap and gown?” or “Is there a cheaper, faster option than the Fordham Store?” The answer is here. This page is your Commencement Central, built for Rams and their families. At CAPGOWN, we don’t just provide regalia for Fordham—we help you wear your Ram achievement, carry your maroon into the future, and walk across Edwards Parade not only as a graduate, but as a living legacy of Fordham University.
Regalia is suitable for all programs within the following schools and colleges:
Fordham College at Rose Hill, Fordham College at Lincoln Center, Gabelli School of Business, School of Professional and Continuing Studies, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, Graduate School of Education, School of Law, Graduate School of Religion and Religious Education, and Graduate School of Social Service.
