• Regalia

  Regalia is available for purchase from now until March 10, 2023. You may select to have regalia shipped directly to you at your home address or you may select to have it shipped to New England College. Please note that your regalia order does not ship until ordering has closed in March.

  If you select to have regalia shipped to New England College you will still be required to enter a home shipping address as a contingency. New England College absorbs shipping costs for regalia selected to ship to New England College. Information on how to pick-up regalia before the 2023 Commencement Ceremony will be forthcoming.

  Ordering regalia does not guarantee a student’s eligibility to participate in the Commencement Ceremony. For questions on eligibility, please contact the Registrar’s office at (603) 428 2203.
