LMU Degrees and Academic Attire

At Loyola Marymount University, traditional commencement attire for Bachelor’s and Master’s degree candidates consists of a black gown and cap, gold tassel, and hood trimmed in velvet corresponding in color to the subject of the degree earned. For example, a student with a major of Business Administration wears a hood with drab velvet trim, whereas a student majoring in any of the various fields of Education wears a hood with light blue velvet trim. In contrast, Doctoral degree candidates wear a cardinal robe with gold trim and coordinating tam. Please refer to the following list to ensure that you obtain the correct hood to wear at Commencement.
