Caps and Gowns
In recent years, graduates have worn a cap and gown at graduation ceremonies. However, for sustainability reasons, we do not recommend purchasing these items of clothing just to wear them for a few hours. We appreciate it if you dress festively for this occasion, but of course, you are free to decide for yourself what to wear. If you do choose to purchase a gown and/or cap, you can use the link you will receive in the confirmation after you click submit. Prices and payment you find via the link. The deadline for order is 8 Nov.

Deadline
In order to prepare the diploma's, we work with a deadline. Unfortunately, we cannot accept requests/changes after the deadline of Nov. 8.

QR Code & Identification
Upon entry, we ask you to show your personal QR code and a valid identity card (passport, identity card or residence permit). This is to ensure that the degree will be handed out to the rightful owner.
