Commencement
for Texas State University
Texas State University Commencement Central: Graduation Regalia & Accessories
Commencement at Texas State University is more than a milestone—it is the embodiment of the Bobcat spirit. It’s the culmination of afternoons at Sewell Park, late nights in Alkek Library, traditions beneath the Victory Star, and cheering on the Bobcats at UFCU Stadium. As you walk across the stage in your cap and gown, the lights of Strahan Arena or UFCU Stadium shining and the roar of your family and classmates filling the venue, it is not just about receiving a degree—it is about stepping fully into the maroon and gold legacy that unites generations of Bobcats.
Bachelor’s Regalia Set for Texas State University
Texas State bachelor’s graduates cross the stage in the traditional matte black gown, sustainably tailored from recycled fibers, with discreet side pockets and a neckline loop to secure stoles. A hidden front hook allows for either a traditional closed silhouette or an open-front style, giving you freedom to showcase your outfit beneath. The bachelor cap and gown set for Texas State University includes a mortarboard cap and tassel with a year charm, specific to your TXST college requirements. Designed to be lightweight and breathable, the gown celebrates graduates from the College of Liberal Arts, McCoy College of Business, College of Education, College of Science and Engineering, College of Fine Arts and Communication, and programs across campus, all while reflecting Texas State University’s enduring commitment to sustainability.
Doctoral Regalia for Texas State University
Doctoral graduates step into TXST’s most prestigious attire: tailored crepe maroon gowns accented with gold piping, plush black velvet front panels, and three black velvet chevrons on each bell sleeve. The doctoral hood, lined in TXST’s signature colors of rich maroon satin with a bold gold chevron, is trimmed in blue velvet to denote the Ph.D. discipline. The ensemble is completed with an eight-sided black velvet tam, adjustable for fit, and a gold bullion tassel for an added touch of prestige. Each regalia set includes a garment bag and carrying case, supporting not just commencement but a lifetime of ceremonial use, from doctoral recognition in Strahan Arena at the University Events Center to future convocations and commencements.
Why CAPGOWN Over the Bobcat Store?
Unlike the Bobcat Store and traditional university vendor process, where regalia orders must be placed by specific deadlines and can take weeks to be delivered, CAPGOWN fulfills bachelor’s regalia in just one business day—at about half the traditional bookstore purchase price. Backed by thousands of verified 5-star reviews from Bobcats nationwide, our regalia are praised for craftsmanship, comfort, and durability that last well beyond the ceremony. Each regalia set adheres to TXST’s commencement standards, making CAPGOWN the trusted alternative source of regalia for Texas State graduates. When you wear your regalia from CAPGOWN, you can be sure that you will be among fellow Bobcats who have taken graduation photos at Old Main and along the San Marcos River and crossed the stage with family and friends cheering them on.
Bobcats can also extend their milestone with diploma frames embossed with the Texas State University seal—the perfect way to showcase years of dedication. Many choose custom tote bags, alumni keepsakes, and San Marcos memorabilia that carry the spirit of Texas State into their professional careers.
Each spring, Bobcats ask the same questions on r/txstate: “Where’s the best place to get my cap and gown?” or “Is there a cheaper, faster option than the Bobcat Store?” The answer is here. This page is your Commencement Central, built for Bobcats and their families. At CAPGOWN, we don’t just provide regalia for Texas State—we help you wear your Bobcat achievement, carry your maroon and gold into the future, and walk out of Strahan Arena not only as a graduate, but as a living legacy of Texas State University.
Regalia is suitable for all programs within the following colleges:
College of Applied Arts, McCoy College of Business, College of Education, College of Fine Arts and Communication, College of Health Professions, College of Liberal Arts, College of Science and Engineering, University College, Honors College, and The Graduate College.
