3. Don’t forget to make sure that you have your cap, gown, and tassel.  If you haven’t yet, please take the gown out of the package and hang/steam so it doesn’t appear creased or wrinkled.  Caps should NOT be decorated in any way.  Students will be required to purchase a new cap if they arrive with a cap that has been decorated.  The cost of the cap will be $5.00. 

4. Please note, there is NO DROP OFF.  Shuttles will run from the lots to the arena and handicap parking is available adjacent to the Towson Center for handicap permit holders.
