What to wear
Due to the importance of the graduation ceremonies and celebrations, a tidy standard of dress is expected from participants, along with the academic dress applicable to your qualification.
Korowai (Māori cloak) and Pacific cloaks may be worn with academic regalia. They should be worn over the gown and under the hood.
International students may prefer to wear their national dress with the academic regalia.
