Webster University Commencement & Academic Regalia Overview

At Webster University, the commencement ceremony honors the academic achievements of graduates from bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral programs. Students must complete their petition to graduate, register for the ceremony and purchase the required graduation gown and graduation cap before walking the stage.

The standard academic regalia set includes a graduation gown, graduation cap (mortarboard or tam as appropriate) and accompanying tassel. According to the University’s official regalia page, the gown colour for graduating students is **navy blue with black striping**, and the cap is a navy blue mortarboard. When ordering regalia, the correct colour for your tassel, hood or stole will be automatically matched to your degree type and discipline.

Honour cords, stoles and hoods are authorised accessories at Webster. Undergraduates eligible for Latin honours (cum laude, magna cum laude, summa cum laude) receive honour cords with colours determined by their college or department. Stoles may be optional, depending on student involvement or departmental achievement, and graduate students wear hoods that align with their degree and field of study. The University emphasises that when students order their cap and gown, the correct accessory colour (stole/hood) will be included.

Faculty regalia at Webster University follows traditional academic dress conventions: faculty members wear gowns and hoods appropriate to their highest earned degree, and the institutional colours reflect those credentials. While student graduation gown colour is uniform (navy blue with black accents), faculty regalia may include distinct hoods or trims corresponding to faculty discipline and degree level.

In summary, Webster University’s commencement and academic regalia guidelines ensure that every graduate appears in a formal, unified ceremony‑ready set: a navy blue graduation gown, navy graduation cap, correct tassel colour, and appropriate honour cords or stoles. The focus is on consistency, discipline alignment (via tassel/hood/stole colour) and ceremony readiness with correct cap, gown and tassels sets for bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral levels.
