Bonds

If you are attending a graduation for the University of Auckland, Manukau Institute of Technology, Auckland University of Technology or Unitec or another graduation where Academic Dress Hire is the preferred supplier, you will not need to pay bond.

Any individual who wishes to hire graduation regalia for photographs or reasons other than attending an Academic Dress Hire sanctioned graduation ceremony can hire regalia on Casual Hire basis.

We are happy to supply graduation regalia on specially arranged casual hire terms. A bond is payable as security for the hire of graduation regalia. All casual hire payments are paid in full before dispatch of graduation regalia.

Bond is $100.00 for all casual hires that include a gown. If you hire a hood or hat only the bond is $50.00. The bond may be increased for extended hire periods - only by prior arrangement with ADH.  Your bond will be fully refunded on return of graduation regalia.  Costs for hire items as below:
 

ITEM	HIRE COST
Gown (All gown types)	$38.00
Hood / Scarf or Stole (All types)	$21.00

Combining hire and purchase of regalia

You can choose to hire some, and purchase to keep some of your regalia order.  A number of graduates have chosen to hire the gown, and buy the trencher and hood to keep.  You can also purchase a full set of regalia, the choice is yours. 

There are options to hire or buy during the ordering process and in the shopping cart.  For a full list of items and purchase versus hire costs, please see the information above under Cost to Hire and Cost to Buy.

If you wish to purchase a degree hood or diploma scarf/stole, please notify us as soon as possible.  A $50.00 deposit is required before these items will be ordered for you.

If you also choose to hire some items, the hire items will need to be returned at the times stated on your invoice to avoid late fee penalties. 

Please feel free to call us on 09 3581044 to discuss regalia and payment options
