Florida State College at Jacksonville (FSCJ) holds its commencement ceremony each spring at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena, as noted in its official commencement FAQ. Graduates must register in myFSCJ to RSVP by the published deadline, and once confirmed, caps and gowns are provided to students who register on time.

In 2025, FSCJ notified graduates that the color of the cap and gown has changed, and students must place their order via the Herff Jones portal, selecting their degree type (associate, bachelor, or diploma) during checkout. According to the FSCJ Commencement FAQ, graduates must arrive early for check-in (typically around 2 p.m.), and the ceremony begins at 4 p.m., running until approximately 6:30 p.m.

Regarding honor cords and stoles, FSCJ has clear limitations. According to its FAQs, only cords or stoles from recognized campus academic groups—such as Phi Theta Kappa, Mu Alpha Theta, military, dual‑enrollment, or other institutional organizations—are permitted. Personal or decorative stoles or cords are not allowed unless sanctioned by the organization. The FSCJ Honors Program, for instance, offers a special honors diploma or certificate, and honor graduates receive distinctive regalia via liaison; this recognizes their GPA, service-learning, and e-portfolio achievements.

FSCJ’s Student Handbook does not include a detailed, discipline‑based color chart for tassels, hoods, or faculty regalia. As a result, academic-dress accessories like tassels or stoles rely mostly on standard academic regalia practices or the colors defined by individual honor societies. This means many FSCJ graduates will use common tassel colors (e.g., black or metallic) and society‑specific cords during commencement.

In short, FSCJ emphasizes a structured, inclusive commencement process: graduates register, receive regalia via Herff Jones, and wear academic dress with only approved cords or stoles. But because it does not mandate a broad institutional color scheme by discipline, students typically follow honor society traditions or generic academic regalia norms.
