Rasmussen University Commencement & Academic Regalia Overview

Rasmussen University hosts graduation ceremonies annually across its campus locations (e.g., Minnesota, Illinois, Florida) and schedules specific dates for undergraduate, graduate, nursing, and other program completions. Participation requires registration by a published deadline.

To participate in commencement, graduates must order and wear the approved academic regalia. This includes a cap, gown, tassel and graduation stole — all required to be worn to the ceremony. Regalia is ordered via an official vendor (e.g. Graduation Source) by the specified deadline prior to the ceremony.

Rasmussen University recognizes academic honors: graduates who meet GPA-based honors criteria receive a **gold honor cord** to wear at commencement as a visible symbol of academic achievement.

While regalia packages include a stole, there is **no publicly available color‑chart** or school‑provided mapping of tassel, hood, or stole colors tied to academic discipline, degree type (associate, bachelor, master), or field of study on the public commencement pages or catalog. Examination of their publicly available documents does not reveal a formal discipline‑based color standard.

In summary: Rasmussen University enforces a structured graduation attire policy — graduates must order and wear approved regalia (cap, gown, stole/tassel) to participate. Honors students receive gold cords for academic distinction. Because there is no publicly published discipline‑color system, all graduates generally use a standard regalia set; any color variation beyond the standard stole or honor cord appears to be optional or handled by external vendors.
