Academic Regalia
Undergraduate Regalia
Undergraduate students wear maroon gowns and maroon mortarboards.
The tassel worn pertains to the academic degree being received.
- Bachelor of Arts: black tassel
- Bachelor of Music: pink tassel
- Bachelor of Science: gold tassel
- Bachelor of Social Work: white tassel
Undergraduate students in regalia wear the tassel on the right side of the mortarboard. During the Commencement ceremony the students change the tassel to the left side, signifying they have earned their degrees.
Undergraduate students may decorate the top of the mortarboard.
Many participants wear international flag patches, which are worn by students, faculty, and staff who have lived, studied, or done research abroad, including international students and faculty. These patches are the only embellishments permitted on the commencement gowns. Graduates may not embroider or otherwise decorate their gowns.
Graduate Regalia
Graduate students wear a black gown, undecorated black mortarboard, black tassel, and a hood.
Hoods, which are given during the Graduate Hooding Ceremony, reflect the color of the academic discipline.
- Business: drab
- Education: light blue
- Nutrition: gold
- Psychology: gold
- Criminal Justice: blue
Graduate students in regalia wear the tassel on the left side of the mortarboard as they have already graduated (earned the undergraduate degree). They do not change the tassel during the Commencement ceremony.
What kind of enhancements can graduating students add to their commencement attire?
The College’s Policy on Cultural Identity Enhancements to Academic Regalia at Meredith College’s Commencement Ceremonies states:
Meredith College’s commencement exercises are a dignified celebration of our graduates’ academic achievement. Caps and gowns, also known as academic regalia, are worn to signify this achievement. To honor cultural heritage and identity, graduates are encouraged to wear adornments such as cultural stoles reflecting their cultural heritage and salient identities, provided they are respectful of others and refrain from making political statements.
To ensure the ceremony is conducted with the appropriate tradition and respect for the event, the College reserves the right to restrict items during graduation if such items may result in a disruption or interference with the graduation ceremony.
These practices will be periodically reviewed and amended as necessary to accommodate changes in graduation traditions, recognition practices, or the College’s guidelines.
Cultural Stole and Cord Policy FAQs
Meredith College’s commencement exercises are a dignified celebration of our graduates’ academic achievement. To ensure the ceremony is conducted with the appropriate respect for the event, the College reserves the right to restrict items during graduation if such items may disrupt or interfere with the graduation ceremony.
In support of diversity and cultural expression, graduates can wear enhancements representing their cultural heritage provided they are respectful of others and refrain from making political statements.
A cultural stole is a piece of regalia graduates may wear to express and honor their cultural heritage. It allows students to proudly display their heritage, ethnicity, and cultural affiliations. Cultural stoles typically feature colors, symbols, or patterns that are significant to the graduate’s cultural background.
Kente: A Kente stole is a woven cloth, originating from Ghanaian tradition, that was historically reserved for royalty but has now become a symbol of pride and accomplishment. It is worn draped over the shoulders like a scarf, similar to traditional graduation stoles. Typically, Kente stoles are worn to signify various achievements, graduations, or significant life events. *Kente Stole History
Sarape Sashes: These sashes are inspired by traditional Mexican sarapes, featuring vivid bands of colors and often adorned with embroidered letters or symbols. Sarape sashes are a symbol of celebration and cultural pride, representing the rich heritage of Mexico and Latinx communities.
LGBTQ+: Serve as a visual representation of the wearer’s identity within the LGBTQ+ community. These stoles commonly showcase the rainbow flag, which has become universally acknowledged as a symbol of LGBTQ+ pride.
*These are examples rather than an exhaustive list.
An example of a political statement that would be discouraged during a commencement ceremony is a graduate wearing an enhancement expressing strong opinions on a controversial political topic or endorsing a specific political ideology, candidate, or political movement. For instance, advocating for a political policy, making partisan remarks, or engaging in explicit political activism during commencement would be considered inappropriate.
During commencement ceremonies, many students, faculty, and staff wear international flag patches to signify that they have lived, studied, or done research abroad. These patches are the only embellishments permitted on the commencement gowns.
Graduates may not embroider or otherwise decorate their gowns. Decorating mortarboards (commonly called caps) is allowed and is a longtime tradition at Meredith.
Members of official academic honor societies can wear approved cords or other visual recognitions of that society. For example, members of Sigma Tau Delta, the English honor society, can wear a cord and members of the newly formed Meredith chapter of the national Phi Kappa Phi campus-wide academic honor society can wear medallions. Cords for participation in activities or organizations are not approved.

I am a half Palestinian, half American, Muslim, born and raised in NC! I have played soccer since I was 3 years old and have always been into health and fitness. I really enjoy working out, traveling, baking, and studying Arabic. Ultimately, I would like to specialize in pediatric dietetics, as working with my kids has always been a passion of mine."
"After attending Meredith`s open house, I knew I needed to put them as one of my top choices for grad school. I really love how they represented support and community throughout their program. They have an outstanding reputation and a wonderful community of faculty, staff, and peers, that I truly believe will help me become successful in my graduate work and ultimately my career. I have always been attracted to small knit programs, and the feeling of support and guidance I received during my application process, truly set them apart from other schools. I could not be more excited to begin my journey with Meredith!" #gradschool #gradstudent #rd2b #rd2be #mcgoingstrong #mcgradstrong

Double Costa Rica #WorldWideWednesday Highlight! 👏🇨🇷
Grace Upton, ’25, a #MeredithCollege Biology and Environmental Sustainability student, completed a 6-week study abroad program in Monteverde, Costa Rica. Hear what she has to say about her experience in a #MeredithCollege Affiliate Program through @Cieestudyabroad
“I loved being able to meet other students from across the United States who were also passionate about Conservation Biology and ready to explore a new culture! We bonded quickly as a group through our shared studies and adventures. However, our most impactful experiences were not at volcanos or zip lines, but in our local Monteverde community. We got to know our campus staff, host families, and local dance instructor very well, and it created a strong sense of family here that I will not soon forget.
I would recommend that any #MeredithCollege student study abroad to learn more about others and about themselves!”

We are less than a month away from the 2025 Study Abroad Fair and for this week’s #WorldWideWednesday, we travel to Costa Rica to hear from Hailey Martin, ’25.
Hailey is a Biology student who completed field research in Costa Rica. Hear what Hailey has to say about her experience ⬇️
“Studying abroad in Costa Rica was like a complete fever dream. It was hard for me to accept that I was able to be a part of this experience. I was able to be fully immersed in fascinating biodiversity from curious wildlife to magnificent flora. The most meaningful part of this experience was being able to work alongside Costa Rican native Fabricio Camacho. He showed us the highlands and lowlands of Costa Rica and shared his knowledge of Agroforestry.
The extent of knowledge I gained from this program is miles long. Other than academics, I learned we have an enormous negative impact on the biodiversity that surrounds us and that even the smallest of changes we make to our routines could greatly benefit our ecosystems.
I believe every #MeredithCollege student should give study abroad a chance. Outside of college you can really only travel to countries as a tourist but with study abroad, you may have the opportunity to access things that only locals know about. It truly is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!”

Heading back to Spain for another #worldwidewednesday to hear from @mcpsychdepartment, Spanish, and social work student Lydia Bonecutter, ’25, who shares about another @Cieestudyabroad experience ⬇️
“I would describe my time in Spain as enlightening and fulfilling. I was able to study, travel, and explore so many things that I would have never dreamed about doing. The people I met in Sevilla were the most meaningful to me. I met so many wonderful people—professors, friends, and others. I have learned a lot about myself. I learned more about what I want to do with my career and gained more self-confidence.
Other Meredith students should consider studying abroad because it genuinely opens their eyes to different cultures and helps them to explore themselves while navigating a new environment.”

For this week’s #WorldWideWednesday, we travel to Madrid, Spain, and then over to Kyoto, Japan, to hear from @Meredith_school_of_Business and Spanish student Lizbeth Burgos De Pena, ’24, who participated in a @Cieestudyabroad Open Campus Study Abroad Program!
Hear what Lizbeth has to say ⬇️
“My study abroad experience was eye-opening and life-changing. Navigating new countries on my own taught me valuable life lessons and fostered self-realization. The most meaningful part was building lifelong relationships with my host family, friends, and locals, making the journey fulfilling.
Studying abroad made me more globally competent and taught me to embrace stepping out of my comfort zone. I gained confidence in traveling independently and navigating the world. Academically, I broadened my horizons by studying different subjects in diverse educational settings. I practiced my first language in Spain and learned a new one in Japan while immersing myself in different cultures.
#MeredithCollege students should consider studying abroad for the chance to learn, meet amazing people, and experience personal growth.”
