Gown guide

The style of gown you require is determined by your age and level of study. To find out which type and size of gown you need, please consult our gown guide. To buy a gown, visit the SU building during opening hours. Please note that we are unable to reserve gowns in advance so to secure your order in advance, we recommend using our click and collect service.
