Wesleyan College Commencement & Academic Regalia Overview

At Wesleyan College, the commencement ceremony marks a proud milestone for students completing their degrees under the traditional academic regalia guidelines. Graduates attending the ceremony wear a standard graduation gown and a graduation cap (mortarboard) with tassel, making up the essential “cap, gown and tassels set”. According to the College’s official regalia policy, students participating in the Baccalaureate and Commencement ceremonies must wear a College-issued black cap, black tassel and black gown.

The graduation gown colour is uniformly black, consistent across bachelor, master and doctoral candidates, which ensures cohesive academic regalia visuals. The graduation cap should be worn flat on the head, with the tassel positioned on the right prior to the conferment of degrees.

While regalia colour remains standard, the College allows personalisation through approved honour cords, stoles and pins. Graduates may wear stoles, cords or pins of academic standing issued by Wesleyan College or College-approved entities (for example honour societies). The policy preserves the traditional black gown and cap, while honour accessories provide recognition of academic and organisational achievement.

Faculty regalia and other academic-level distinctions are aligned with the institution’s academic regalia standards. Faculty members and doctoral candidates typically wear academic gowns and hoods appropriate to their rank, though Wesleyan publicly emphasises the base gown colour and tassel rather than specifying a separate graduation gown colour by level. The emphasis remains on consistent black academic regalia for graduates, standard black graduation caps, and properly positioned tassels before degree conferment.

In summary, Wesleyan College’s commencement and academic regalia guidelines ensure that every graduate appears in high-quality graduation gown, graduation cap and tassel set, with optional honour cords and stoles that comply with the College’s approved accessory policy. The unmistakable black graduation gown colour and simple yet formal cap and tassel arrangement emphasise the ceremony’s unity and academic tradition.
