The Bookstore has already placed the order for regalia (cap, gown, etc.). If you did not fill out a graduation survey in time, please reach out to them (stop by or email bookstore@dunwoody.edu). Your regalia packet will arrive in April, and you’ll be notified when it’s ready to pick up at the Bookstore.
