Scottsdale Community College – Commencement & Academic Regalia Summary

Scottsdale Community College holds an annual Commencement ceremony for eligible graduates including certificate, associate, and transfer‑degree recipients. The 2025 Commencement is scheduled at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick. Graduates who wish to participate must apply for graduation and then register for Commencement by the deadline.

For participating students, SCC requires a cap and gown set to walk across the stage. According to the College’s 2025 Commencement notice, the required regalia is described as the “SCC GOLD cap & gown.” In other words, the graduation gown and cap for Scottsdale CC graduates is gold — making the “graduation gown color” specification explicit.

Graduates must order their cap & gown by the deadline communicated after they apply for graduation. The official regalia pack includes cap, gown and tassel.

For academic honors, SCC provides a “distinction cord” for graduates who earn certain GPA thresholds: those graduating with a GPA between 3.50–3.69 receive “with distinction,” 3.70–3.89 “with high distinction,” and 3.90–4.00 “with highest distinction.” Eligible students can pick up their distinction cords at either the Grad Bash event or during Commencement check‑in.

Certificate program graduates are not eligible for institutional honors distinction cords. Honor cords or stoles for other activities, societies, or veteran status are not documented publicly — the publicly available Commencement and regalia policy does not mention stoles or other color‑coded regalia beyond the gold gown, cap and the distinction‑cord program.

In summary: Scottsdale Community College’s Commencement attire policy mandates a gold graduation gown and cap for all participating graduates. Tassels are standardly included with the regalia set. Graduates earning high academic GPA thresholds receive a distinction cord (color unspecified publicly, but offered as recognition). There is no publicly available policy specifying stoles, hoods, or other discipline‑based regalia colors. Any additional cords or stoles beyond the distinction cord appear to be outside publicly documented SCC regalia standards.
