VMRC- Graduation Stoles 2021
UW Tacoma student Veterans and Military Dependents can purchase a customized military stole indicating their military status and service branch.
To Do
If you would like you to request your stole, please log in with your UW EMAIL/Username (i.e., UWTVMRC@UW.EDU)
Cost
The cost per veteran stole is TBD*
Last year's stole was $69.00. This cost covers the price of the stole, licensing fee, and shipping.
Veteran Readiness and Employment (Chapter 31) student graduates, please get an updated PO with "Graduation Supplies" (cap, gown, stoles, and fees) from your VR&E Case Manager.
Order Deadline
The deadline to request stoles is Friday, April 15, 2021. Since this is just a request and not the official order- we would suggest completing the survey if interested. Any orders after that time may incur a late processing fee.
Payments
Once we finalize this year's cost in a few months, the ordering site will be open.
*The VMRC would like to thank The SAF Committee (SAFC) that contributed to this year's Military Stole Campaign, which will help decrease the out-of-pocket stole cost for our 2021 student veteran and military affiliate graduates.
