Student Regalia

  • Regalia should be worn by all graduates.
  • Academic honors for BS graduates (cum laude, magna cum laude, summa cum laude) are designated based on a student’s cumulative GPA when entering their final semester. This is what the printed program will reflect. If final grades are submitted in time and your honors designation changes, you can swap out your stole at the NCSU Bookstore. When checking in for the ceremony, you can update your honors status for the person reading out the names so the correct designation is used.
