Widener University

Widener University holds multiple school and college‑specific commencement ceremonies each May on its Chester campus under a tent on Memorial Field. Graduates from the Chester and Delaware campuses process into ceremony wearing official academic regalia. According to the Commencement FAQs, “Official Widener‑branded academic regalia is required for all ceremonies and is available for purchase through the Widener Bookstore.”

For graduates, academic dress begins with the graduation cap (typically a mortarboard) and the graduation gown, usually in standard black unless specified otherwise by degree level or programme. While the site does not publish discipline‑by‑discipline colour codes for tassels, honor cords or stoles, Widener does note that Latin honours recipients on the Chester campus receive a gold and white cord, and at the Delaware Law campus, blue and gold cords are worn by Latin honours graduates.

Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctoral recipients each wear regalia corresponding to their awarded degree. Faculty and platform participants wear full academic regalia—gown, hood or stole and headwear—in line with their highest earned degree, reinforcing the traditional academic atmosphere. Graduates must RSVP via the Tassel portal and arrive 30‑60 minutes early for check‑in and lining up.

When marketing or ordering cap‑gown‑tassel sets for Widener University, it is advisable to include keyword‑rich phrases such as “Widener University cap, gown and tassels sets”, “Widener University graduation gown colour bundle”, or “academic regalia Widener University”. Graduates should confirm the correct graduation gown colour (commonly black unless specified), the correct graduation cap style, and any eligible tassel, honor cord or stole colours. This ensures compliance with Widener University’s ceremony attire standards.
