Can I wear my military uniform at graduation?
Yes, you can. Active-duty servicemembers are encouraged to wear their service dress uniform to Grad Walk.
Only the U.S. Army specifically prohibits wearing gowns over uniforms; however, UMGC asks graduates from other branches of the armed forces to follow this practice as well. If you choose to wear your uniform, you are welcome to purchase a cap and gown as a souvenir, but please do not wear it over your uniform.
