FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 

What is Grad Fair?

Grad Fair is a one-stop-shop for all of your graduation needs! On this site: alumni.utep.edu/gradfair you will find detailed information about commencement, regalia purchasing, ordering your class ring, invitations, how to check on your graduation status, and much more.

For how long will this graduation information site be available online?

This graduation information site will be available online through the end of the semester. We will provide updates as they become available, so please make sure to visit alumni.utep.edu/gradfair periodically. 

Can I still purchase my regalia after Grad Fair?

Yes, regalia may be purchased at the UTEP Bookstore either in person or by phone up until the end of the semester. Although online ordering is not currently offered at this time, speaking with a bookstore representative about your Grad Pack purchase allows for a more personal experience about sizing questions and regalia options that are available to you.

You can pick up your order in person at the UTEP Bookstore or have your order shipped directly to you. For more information, please contact the UTEP bookstore at 915-747-5594 or by email at 1006mgr@follett.com.



Can I return or exchange my Regalia that I purchased from the Bookstore?

We recommend you to hold on to your receipt of purchase and speak with a UTEP Bookstore representative directly for further information.

Should you decide to exchange any items, we encourage you to keep your Class of 2022 Commemorative Medallion* as a keepsake. If you do so, the medallion cost will be deducted from the total amount.

What is the Class of 2022 Medallion*? 

The 2022 commemorative medallion design is unique to your graduating class and inspired by a signature element in UTEP's Bhutanese architecture - the Mandala. Mandala is Sanskrit for "circle."

Your medallion represents your educational journey coming full circle. You will carry with you the traditions and values of UTEP, your alma mater!

If you purchase a medallion, a portion of your purchase will go toward the UTEP Alumni Association Endowed Scholarship fund, empowering current students to achieve their academic dream.

Who is the licensed official vendor of regalia?
Jostens is the official vendor of UTEP regalia.

Can I order my regalia online directly from Jostens?

Yes, but it is not recommended because the medallion is NOT included in the online order, and online orders cannot be returned to the bookstore. Visit the UTEP Bookstore before ordering online. There may be a price variance.

Can I order my regalia from another vendor?

Yes, but it is NOT recommended due to the fact that the shades of black, material texture, cut, and stitching on the gown are distinctively different. Hood and Tassel colors are also noticeably different shades and material texture. These items will not be accepted by the Bookstore as returns.

Your UTEP Family is so proud to celebrate YOU!
