Endicott College runs traditional, well-organized commencement ceremonies that pair academic ritual with clear student guidance. Students are instructed to order cap, gown, hood and accessory items through the college’s approved regalia vendor or Memorial Union Bookstore; Build-A-Grad is typically used for online regalia ordering each year.
Undergraduate and graduate candidates wear classic black graduation gowns with mortarboard graduation caps; tassel conventions and hood requirements follow degree level — bachelor’s candidates wear caps and tassels, while master’s and doctoral candidates also use velvet-trimmed hoods during hooding ceremonies. Endicott’s Hooding Ceremony and doctoral recognition events are explicitly noted in the Commencement calendar and program pages.
Endicott publishes guidance on honor regalia and student distinctions: members of specific honors programs and societies wear distinctive stoles, cords, and medallions. For example, Endicott Scholars and Leadership Scholars wear green and blue stoles respectively; Mortar Board members may wear gold and silver cords and a medallion on white ribbon. The college bookstore stocks stoles and honor items (stole pricing is publicly listed).
Faculty and administrators observe intercollegiate academic dress conventions: faculty may rent gowns, hoods and caps through campus services for ceremony participation, and their faculty regalia reflect the wearer’s highest degree and field. Endicott also supports senior portrait sessions and provides cap-and-gown photography resources ahead of commencement.
In short: Endicott’s commencement blends classic black gowns and mortarboards with degree-level hoods, honor stoles/cords for society and distinction recognition, and an organized ordering/rental system (vendor + bookstore) so graduates and faculty present a consistent, discipline-identified appearance at ceremony.
Short: Black cap, gown & tassel with optional hood, cords & stoles.
