UTRGV Regalia Design

The UTRGV regalia design consists of the following:

Bachelor’s degree features the embroidered UTRGV seal and orange trim on the sleeves. The bachelor’s tassel color is by college/school.
Master’s degree consists of a black gown that will have the embroidered UTRGV seal, orange trim, orange piping, and elongated sleeves. The master's hood incorporates the university colors (orange and white chevron) and the color traditionally associated with the graduate’s specific field of study on the velvet. The master’s tassel color is black.
Doctoral degree features a gray gown accented with orange sleeve chevrons and front panels. The university seal is embroidered on the front panels. The regalia includes an 8-sided black tam with an attached gold silk tassel. The doctoral hood incorporates the university colors (orange and white chevron) and the color traditionally associated with the graduate’s specific field of study on the velvet. Custom rental items must be returned the week following Commencement. A pre-paid return shipping label is included with online home-ship orders.

While we encourage students to wear our newly-designed regalia, use of traditional black regalia from prior semesters is permitted.
