For the best results when ordering your academic apparel, we recommend the following measuring guidelines Height. List approximate weight in street clothes. Measure from center point at base of collar, over top of shoulder, down arm to bottom of wrist and then add one inch to this measurement. Take measurement over largest portion of chest. Be sure tape is well up under the arms and over the shoulder blades.
Men can usually just provide their jacket size.
Measure the circumference around the head at one inch above eye brows and ears. Record the exact size in inches. We will convert this measurement to a cap size. The doctoral robe has the distinction of having velvet chevrons on the front panels and the sleeves of the robe. These velvet chevrons can be black, Ph.D. blue, or your academic degree color.
