Step 2- After Applying for Graduation
Candidates for graduation notify the University of their intention to participate in their graduation ceremony by registering with Marching Order. Candidates who are unsure if they will participate are advised to register even if the candidate is not sure of their attendance. A candidate registered through Marching Order receives critical information designed to inform the graduate about their graduation ceremony.

Regalia
All participants dress for commencement according to traditions stemming from the world’s oldest universities. The regalia worn by graduates and faculty members signifies the various degrees, disciplines, and institutions of the members of the academic procession and is an outward sign of membership in the university community.
Regalia requirements differ for degrees and schools. Candidates can visit the UTEP Bookstore to purchase regalia and announcements.
Regalia (caps, gowns, tassels, etc) will be available for purchase online or in-person at the UTEP Bookstore up to the day of commencement.
