Your graduation regalia will be provided by CMI on the day of the ceremony. You will be required to sign for your regalia when collecting it.
Regalia must be returned after the ceremony. Failure to return the regalia may result in a replacement fee being charged.
Academic regalia instructions and details for each degree (e.g. hood colour) can be found in the ACA015 -Graduation-Attainment-and-Awards-Policy.
What to wear to graduation?
Graduation is a formal occasion, and graduates are encouraged to wear smart, formal or semi-formal attire underneath their graduation regalia.
When choosing your outfit, please keep in mind that your graduation gown needs to be secured around your clothing. A shirt or blouse with buttons, or clothing with a suitable neckline, can make it easier to secure your regalia. If your clothing does not have buttons or a suitable fastening point, a brooch or similar accessory may be helpful.
There are steep stairs to and from the stage, so for your safety and comfort, we recommend wearing comfortable, flat, closed-toe shoes.
