The University of North Carolina Wilmington’s commencement ceremonies are held in the Trask Coliseum and consist of a formal recognition of graduates where each participant wears their official academic regalia including a graduation cap, graduation gown and tassel.

For undergraduates at UNCW, the graduation gown is typically the standard bachelor’s gown designated by the university. Graduates are required to wear the official cap and gown to participate in the ceremony — ordering begins approximately three months in advance through the approved regalia vendor. Tassels correspond by college or field, while honour cords and stoles are distributed by academic departments or the Office of the Registrar, especially for Latin honours and designated student‑organization recognition.

Graduates earning a master’s or doctoral degree at UNCW wear regalia reflecting their degree level: the gown may include a hood (for advanced degrees), and the graduation cap remains the mortarboard for many or tam for some doctoral robes. The gown colours and trim match UNCW’s regalia guidelines for advanced academic achievement. According to the regalia page, “Your regalia includes your cap, gown, hood (masters and doctoral only), and any cords or stoles that you may have earned.”

Honour cords, stoles and other recognition items at UNCW are carefully regulated: distinction cords for Latin honours are available for eligible undergraduates and are distributed via the Office of the Registrar. Other cords and stoles—such as philanthropy cords for contributions to the UNCW Society—are awarded by the Alumni or student organisations. Faculty regalia also follows academic tradition: faculty may participate in the processional and wear gowns, hoods and headwear appropriate to their highest earned degree and discipline.

In summary: when selecting a cap, gown and tassels set for UNCW’s commencement, be sure your graduation gown corresponds to your degree level (Bachelor, Master, Doctoral), your graduation cap is included (mortarboard or tam), your tassel reflects your field or college, and any honour cord or stole is approved by UNCW. This academic regalia ensemble supports a polished appearance aligned with the university’s commencement traditions.
