Western New England University hosts formal commencement ceremonies for both undergraduate and graduate learners. All participants must wear approved academic regalia, including the graduation gown, graduation cap, and matching tassel set in order to participate in the ceremony. The university instructs graduates to order their regalia early via the campus bookstore vendor to ensure completion of the full cap, gown and tassel set.

The standard graduation gown colour is black for most bachelor and master ceremonies. Undergraduate candidates wear a mortarboard cap, and the tassel is worn on the right until the degree is officially conferred then moved to the left. The university’s graduate regalia ordering form confirms that master’s candidates purchase a gown, cap/tam and tassel together.

Honor cords and stoles may be worn by eligible students in recognition of academic achievement or approved student organizations, provided they are authorized by the university. While WNE provides a regalia ordering form and commencement information, a detailed discipline‑specific tassel or stole colour chart is not publicly published.

Faculty, staff, and administrators participating in the ceremony wear advanced‑degree academic regalia (gowns, hoods, caps) in accordance with their earned credentials. Graduates must ensure they appear in full approved regalia—including correct gown, cap and tassel—since incomplete or non‑compliant attire may prevent participation. Keywords such as graduation gown, graduation cap, academic regalia, cap & gown tassel sets, and graduation gown color are particularly relevant when describing or marketing regalia for WNE commencements.
