Thiel College Commencement & Academic Regalia Summary
Thiel College’s annual commencement ceremony is held in May, featuring a traditional procession along Brother Martin’s Walk and culminating in a graduation ceremony at the William A. Passavant Memorial Center.
The graduation gown for undergraduates includes a black robe, a classic mortarboard cap, and a year‑dated tassel. Bachelor’s graduates do not receive stoles from the college — honor cords or stoles must be purchased separately (e.g., via Jostens).
For graduate students (Master’s), the academic regalia includes a gown, mortarboard cap, tassel, and a hood.
At the campus store, the regalia package for bachelor’s degree typically costs around US$ 38–$40.50, and the master’s package (including hood) is priced higher.
Thiel College does not mandate a specific color for honor cords or stoles; standard regalia is kept simple, allowing students or honor societies to choose their own colors for cords or stoles to complement their cap, gown, and tassel.
Note: To confirm the exact colors of the graduation gown, cap, tassel, honor cords, and stoles for your specific program at Thiel College , 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.
