Oklahoma State University Tulsa

OSU‑Tulsa is part of the overall OSU system, and OSU’s main Commencement policy applies to Tulsa graduates for cap, gown, and tassel requirements.

OSU requires “approved” academic regalia for participants — caps, gowns (by height/size), tassels, and for those earning advanced degrees, hoods and appropriate doctoral/graduate regalia.

Regalia is sold (or rented) via the OSU University Store (Student Union Bookstore) or online at shopokstate.com. Bachelor’s and master’s caps/gowns are available at “Grad Fair” or online; doctoral regalia is available by special order or rental under strict deadlines.

For master’s/doctoral candidates, the hood is part of the regalia. OSU’s academic‑regalia guidelines describe differences in gown sleeve style by degree: bachelor’s gowns have pointed sleeves, master’s have oblong sleeves, doctoral gowns have bell-shaped sleeves and velvet trim.

Regarding tassel/hood/cord colors: For honors and certain distinctions, OSU provides an “Honors Regalia” policy. For example, undergraduates who earn the “Honors College Degree” may wear a baccalaureate hood.

The hood’s lining uses OSU’s institutional colors (orange and black chevron), and the hood trim (velvet or binding) indicates the field of study (discipline), following traditional academic‑regalia conventions.
