Centralia College holds a commencement ceremony at the end of the academic year, for students who have applied for graduation. According to the college catalog, there is a fee for the graduation cap and gown, indicating that graduates must rent or purchase academic regalia to participate.

Regarding academic honors, Centralia College awards Graduation Honors based on cumulative GPA. According to the 2023–24 catalog, students with a 3.90–4.00 GPA graduate with Highest Honors, 3.75–3.89 with High Honors, and 3.50–3.74 with Honors. The 2019–20 catalog further clarifies that honor recipients may wear specific honor cords: Highest Honors and High Honors may wear a gold cord, while Honors may wear a silver cord.

However, while Centralia College publishes its academic‑honor thresholds, it does not provide public documentation of stole colors or discipline‑based tassel schemes in its catalogs or commencement materials. The catalogs make no mention of stoles or color-coded tassels tied to academic departments. As such, it seems Centralia College follows traditional academic regalia practices (cap, gown, honor cords) but without a formal, publicly documented color‑coding system for stoles or departmental regalia.

In terms of gown color, the catalogs do not explicitly say a different gown color; the assumption, consistent with small colleges’ regalia practices, is that graduates wear the standard black graduation gown, since no alternative colors are described. For faculty regalia, Centralia College does not publicly list detailed information about faculty gown colors, hood velvet, or academic regalia for disciplines, suggesting that they may follow general academic dress traditions rather than a tailored, institution‑specific scheme.

In summary, Centralia College’s commencement emphasizes formal academic tradition: a standard gown and cap, GPA‑based honor cords (gold and silver), and participation in a formal ceremony, but without publicly available or enforced color standards for tassels, stoles, or discipline-specific regalia.
