Immaculata University

Immaculata University holds commencement annually: according to its public 2025 schedule, the Undergraduate Commencement (associates and bachelor’s) and Graduate/Doctoral Commencement take place on the same day in May, but in separate ceremonies for undergraduates and graduate students.

Graduates are required to wear academic attire (cap, gown, hood — except associate-level — and tassel) to participate in commencement.

On the official university “Academic Attire” ordering page, Immaculata specifies that different regalia bundles are available: for associates, a cap‑gown‑tassel bundle; for bachelor’s degrees: cap‑gown‑tassel‑hood; for master’s degrees: cap‑gown‑tassel‑hood; and for doctoral degrees: full doctoral attire including tam (or cap), gown, tassel, and hood.

For advanced degrees, the hood velvet color corresponds to the academic discipline: for example, Doctor of Psychology graduates are instructed to select a gold (science) velvet hood, while Doctor of Education graduates select a light‑blue (education) velvet hood.

Immaculata also offers a “Philanthropy Cord” for students who participate in its Commencement Class Giving initiative — serving as a cord that graduating students may wear in recognition of their contribution to the university.

However — and notably — there is no publicly available standardized color chart on IU’s website that defines tassel colors, honor cords, or stole colors across all degrees or disciplines (beyond the hood velvet instructions for doctorates). I found no handbook or catalog PDF on the IU site that systematically lists required or optional colors for undergraduate tassels, stoles, honor cords, or discipline-based trimming for master’s degrees.

Thus: IU mandates regalia (cap, gown, hood as appropriate) for commencement, provides clear instructions for ordering, defines hood velvet colors for doctoral degrees by discipline, and supports special cords (like the philanthropy cord). But outside of those guidelines, tassel color, stole color, and honor cord color are not publicly standardized — meaning that many elements are likely left to customization or are determined by individual departments or honor organizations.

Optional Philanthropy Cord: Add the official IU Philanthropy Cord if you participated in the Senior Class Giving campaign — a meaningful tribute to your legacy at the university.
Customizable Tassel, Cords & Stoles (Where Applicable): Since IU does not publish a universal tassel or stole color chart, additional cords or stoles beyond the standard hood are typically issued by departments or honor societies or personalized.
Perfect For: Immaculata University commencement ceremonies, diploma stage walk, graduation photos, and keepsake memories.

Important Note: While hood velvet is discipline‑specific, Immaculata does not publicly provide a uniform tassel / stole / honor‑cord color chart — additional accessories are often department‑ or organization‑specific or customizable.

Note: To confirm the exact colors of the graduation gown, cap, tassel, honor cords, and stoles for your specific program at Immaculata University, you can reach out directly to the college's administration or the office responsible for commencement and student services. They can provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding academic regalia.
