St. Edmund's College

St. Edmund's College is primarily a college for graduates and mature undergraduates thus its undergraduate gown is not frequently seen.

The gown is the basic gown with no forearm slit. The sleeve is gathered above the elbow and the gathers held in place by a blue cord and button.

This gown is used by all the colleges which primarily admit either postgraduates or mature undergraduates.
