Yuba College

The Yuba College commencement ceremony brings together graduates, faculty and community in full academic regalia, symbolizing years of disciplined study and achievement. Graduates don the standard mortarboard graduation cap and a traditional black or navy-blue graduation gown—available through the Yuba College Bookstore as part of a bundled cap, gown and tassel set. Their tassel-colour corresponds to institutional guidelines, while honor cords and stoles recognise academic achievement and affiliations.

According to the college’s official Graduation page, the standard regalia bundle includes cap, gown, and a standard tassel; a “bling” tassel option is also available. Honor cords are specified as double-strand navy and gold for academic distinction (GPA 4.0-3.75) and double-strand gold for academic achievement (GPA 3.74-3.5) at Yuba College. Additional regalia items available include rainbow cords, Kente stoles, serape stoles, first-gen stoles and Yuba College stoles.

The faculty regalia and academic staff dress in full academic gowns, caps (or tams) and hoods that reflect the institution’s navy-blue and gold colour palette. Yuba College’s institutional colours—navy blue and gold—are detailed in the student handbook and regalia guidelines. Through this cap, gown and tassels set framework, graduates and faculty alike express tradition, excellence and institutional identity during commencement.

For students looking to purchase regalia sets ahead of the ceremony, the standard cap, gown and tassels bundle from the Yuba College Bookstore promises convenience and compliance with ceremony guidelines. Choose your set early, confirm your honor-cord eligibility, and ensure your graduation cap and graduation gown reflect your achievement while aligning with Yuba College’s academic regalia standards.
