University of Florida Commencement Central: Graduation Regalia & Accessories

Commencement at the University of Florida is more than a milestone—it is the embodiment of the Gator spirit. It’s the culmination of afternoons on the Plaza of the Americas, late nights in Marston Science Library, traditions beneath Century Tower, and cheering on the Gators in the Swamp. As you walk across the stage in your cap and gown, the lights of Ben Hill Griffin Stadium or the Stephen C. O’Connell Center shining and the roar of your family and classmates filling the venue, it is not just about receiving a degree—it is about stepping fully into the orange and blue legacy that unites generations of Gators.

Bachelor’s Regalia Set for the University of Florida
UF 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 the University of Florida includes a mortarboard cap and tassel with a year charm, specific to your UF college requirements. Designed to be lightweight and breathable, the gown celebrates graduates from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Warrington College of Business, Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering, College of Journalism and Communications, College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, and programs across campus, all while reflecting the University of Florida’s enduring commitment to sustainability.

Doctoral Regalia for the University of Florida
Doctoral graduates step into UF’s most prestigious attire: tailored crepe blue gowns accented with orange piping, plush blue velvet front panels, and three blue velvet chevrons on each bell sleeve. The doctoral hood, lined in UF’s signature colors of luminous orange satin with a blue chevron, 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 doctoral hooding in the Stephen C. O’Connell Center to future convocations and commencements.

Why CAPGOWN Over the UF Bookstore?
Unlike the UF Bookstore, 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 UF bookstore price. Backed by thousands of verified 5-star reviews from Gators nationwide, our regalia are praised for craftsmanship, comfort, and durability that last well beyond the ceremony. Each regalia set adheres to UF’s commencement standards, making CAPGOWN the trusted alternative source of regalia for University of Florida graduates. When you wear your regalia from CAPGOWN, you can be sure that you will be among fellow Gators who have taken graduation photos beneath Century Tower and across the Plaza of the Americas and crossed the stage with family and friends cheering them on.

Gators can also extend their milestone with diploma frames embossed with the University of Florida seal—the perfect way to showcase years of dedication. Many choose custom tote bags, alumni keepsakes, and Gainesville memorabilia that carry the spirit of UF into their professional careers.

Each spring, Gators ask the same questions on r/ufl: “Where’s the best place to get my cap and gown?” or “Is there a cheaper, faster option than the UF Bookstore?” The answer is here. This page is your Commencement Central, built for Gators and their families. At CAPGOWN, we don’t just provide regalia for UF—we help you wear your Gator achievement, carry your orange and blue into the future, and walk out of Ben Hill Griffin Stadium or the Stephen C. O’Connell Center not only as a graduate, but as a living legacy of the University of Florida.

Regalia is suitable for all programs within the following colleges:
College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, College of the Arts, Warrington College of Business, College of Dentistry, College of Design, Construction and Planning, College of Education, Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering, College of Journalism and Communications, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, College of Nursing, College of Pharmacy, College of Public Health and Health Professions, and programs across the university.
