Dowdy Students Stores in the Wright Building is East Carolina University's official source for graduation regalia, merchandise, and apparel. ECU students get their graduation cap, gown, and tassel through the Dowdy Student Stores for their graduation ceremony. The costs for the cap, gown, and standard tassel are paid through student tuition. Please note that there will be additional charges for additional caps, gowns, and tassels, as well as honor cords, and hoods for master’s and doctoral candidates.
