STEP 3: Toga Measurement

The third-party supplier of the academic gown or the toga prepared a deck of instructions on how to go about securing a toga, including how to measure yourself for your toga and how to settle the rental fee. Please take time to read through the deck so you don’t miss any instructions. Once you send out your measurements to the supplier, alterations are not allowed.

The Toga rental fee is P 900.00 and the security deposit is P 2,000.00. The security deposit will be refunded upon return of the toga immediately after the Commencement Exercises. There is a penalty of P 200.00 per day for any delay in the return of the toga.

The deadline for sending toga measurement and rental fee payment is 11 November 2024.
