Family and Friends Can't Make It? 

Friends and family who are not able to make the events in person can watch the commencement ceremonies via livestream on this site on the day of the event. Both ceremonies are also being recorded and will be available on the University's YouTube channel in the weeks following.

Academic Regalia (Cap & Gown) Purchase

The base cost of the baccalaureate regalia package is $36.50. This includes the customized FSU gown, cap, and black tassel.  Our Vender Oak Hall will have the website for FSU open starting January 1, 2025 for online order.

Purchasing options for graduates:

2. Order and pay online, and choose the Ship to Bookstore option for $36.50. Your regalia will be available for pick up beginning on (Date TBD). See a store associate for assistance. Valid ID will be required for pickup.

All students will be wearing regalia made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles! In the effort to remain green on campus, the line of graduation wear - named GreenWeaver - is made of fabric spun from molten plastic pellets. Fewer plastic bottles will be choking our landfills because for every Framingham State student walking at commencement, an average of 23 plastic bottles will be used to produce each cap and gown. With some 60 million plastic bottles going into U.S. landfills every day, Framingham State is helping to turn those bottles into keepsakes.
