General regalia guide


The formal Academic Regalia requirements in New Zealand are based on the Cambridge System. The table below gives a general guide to the regalia needed for each qualification, and provides information about the different types of gowns, hoods and headwear available.

Each tertiary institution has slightly different rules regarding what to wear though as a general rule the following table works well.
