Saint Vincent College Commencement & Academic Regalia Summary

Saint Vincent College holds its commencement ceremonies twice a year: a Spring Commencement (typically May) and a Winter Commencement (typically December). Degrees — bachelor’s and master’s — are conferred in order by school/college, with master’s‑degree recipients first (hooding and diploma) followed by bachelor’s recipients.

All degree‑candidates must wear academic regalia (cap, gown, and where applicable, hood) to participate. For bachelor’s‑degree candidates, the mortarboard tassel is worn on the right front edge of the cap and remains there until the degree is conferred. For master’s candidates, the hood is carried over the left arm until hooding, and the cap tassel is worn on the left front edge.

SVC offers a range of optional regalia accessories available for purchase through its official supplier — including specialty stoles: first‑generation stole, legacy stole, multicultural or cultural‑heritage (e.g. Kente) stoles, and souvenir tassels. ([Saint Vincent College Graduation Products page]) Those stoles allow graduates to express identity, heritage or family legacy during commencement.

Honor tassels are distributed to degree candidates after the required “Graduation Practice” session, prior to commencement. ([stvincent.edu Commencement]) However — there is **no publicly available**, official color‑coded chart mapping specific tassel, stole or hood colors to academic disciplines or degree programs. The publicly accessible Student Handbook also does not define a discipline‑based or degree‑level‑based regalia color scheme. ([Saint Vincent College Student Handbook]) In other words, while SVC supports personalization via optional stoles and offers “honor tassels,” the school does not appear to publicly endorse a rigid academic‑dress color code tied to major or field of study.

In summary: Saint Vincent College’s commencement policy ensures a formal, standardized base regalia (cap, gown, hood where required) for all graduates, with optional — but student‑driven — adornments such as stoles or special tassels for identity, heritage or honor. There is no publicly documented official color‑coded system by academic discipline or degree level. Any product listing claiming “official Saint Vincent College tassel/stole colors by major” would be speculative and not supported by public documentation.
