At West Georgia Technical College, the commencement ceremony marks the achievement of students completing their certificate, diploma or associate degree requirements. According to the WGTC “Graduation Information” page, students must submit a Graduation Application, meet program curriculum requirements, be in good academic standing and complete at least 25 % of their course work at WGTC, and pay the non-refundable graduation fee (e.g., $40) to be eligible for the ceremony.
For academic regalia the institution states that the fee covers “graduation activities and processing of the degree or diploma”; however the cost of the cap and gown is separate. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2} Graduates are responsible for ordering their graduation gown, graduation cap, tassel and other accessories. The graduation cap and gown set must be worn by participating students during the ceremony.
The ceremony is held once per semester, at WGTC’s Murphy Campus (and/or other campuses depending on semester). Students are instructed to check their student email for additional details about cap and gown ordering, ceremony time, guest information and venue logistics.
While WGTC’s publicly-available handbook pages mention the cap and gown fee and gown requirement, they do not list specific tassel colours, graduate hoods, stoles or honour cords by colour scheme. For example, the Medical Assisting program handbook notes “There will be a separate fee for cap and gown.” Thus, information about honour cord colours or stoles is not detailed in the accessible handbook or PDF sources.
In summary, WGTC’s commencement process involves completion of all program requirements, submission of the application and fee, ordering of the academic regalia (cap, gown, tassel), and participation in the formal ceremony wearing the gown. The institution emphasises technical education graduates across certificate, diploma and associate levels, and expects students to conform to the cap, gown and tassel sets required for the ceremony.
