University of Tampa Commencement & Academic Regalia

At UTampa, the commencement ceremony is a formal recognition of achievement for bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral candidates. Each graduate is expected to wear the official graduation gown, a graduation cap (typically a mortarboard for undergraduates and master’s), and adhere to the institution’s formal academic regalia policy.

Graduates must pre‑order their regalia sets – the “cap, gown and tassels sets” – through the university bookstore during the Grad‑Fair period, and pick them up prior to the ceremony. The website emphasises that on‑site pick‑up at the ceremony is not available. Specific discipline‑based tassel or hood colour charts are not widely published; however one PDF notes that “the colour of the velvet border indicates the degree’s discipline.” Honor cords and stoles may be worn by eligible graduates (such as those earning Latin honours or membership in recognised societies) but must comply with university policy.

Participation in the commencement ceremony does not automatically equate to graduation; students must apply to graduate and select the ceremony session appropriate to their college. Faculty and platform participants wear full academic regalia reflecting their highest earned degree level, including gowns, hoods and caps styled according to academic tradition. In summary, UTampa emphasises the importance of the correct graduation gown colour and design, the graduation cap placement, discipline‑ or level‑appropriate tassel or hood, and any authorised honour cords or stoles—ensuring a polished, unified presentation of academic achievement.
