Academic Regalia
Participants in the ceremony should wear authorized caps and gowns. Commencement apparel is available to buy from the USU Campus Store.
Candidates for degrees wear a black mortarboard with a tassel that is a color distinctive of the degree being received. More information about tassel colors can be found at www.usu.edu/commencement#regalia.
Please wear the prescribed academic costume that corresponds to your degree. Each part of the regalia has a traditional meaning specific to your major field, Utah State University, and higher education. Graduate degree candidates are asked to come to graduation ceremonies in full regalia.
