Commencement at the University of Southern California is more than a milestone—it is the embodiment of the Trojan spirit. It’s the culmination of afternoons in McCarthy Quad, late nights in Doheny Memorial Library, traditions around Tommy Trojan, and cheering on the Trojans at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. As you walk across the stage in your cap and gown, the landmarks of University Park Campus rising around you and the roar of your family and classmates filling the ceremony, it is not just about receiving a degree—it is about stepping fully into the cardinal and gold legacy that unites generations of Trojans.

Bachelor’s Regalia Set for the University of Southern California
USC 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 the University of Southern California includes a mortarboard cap and tassel with a year charm, specific to your USC school requirements. Designed to be lightweight and breathable, the gown celebrates graduates from USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences, USC Marshall School of Business, USC Viterbi School of Engineering, USC School of Cinematic Arts, USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism, and programs across campus, all while reflecting the University of Southern California’s enduring commitment to sustainability.

Doctoral Regalia for the University of Southern California
Doctoral graduates step into USC’s most prestigious attire: tailored crepe red gowns accented with cardinal yellow piping, plush red velvet front panels, and three red velvet chevrons on each bell sleeve. The doctoral hood, lined in USC’s signature colors of luminous yellow satin with a red chevron, is trimmed in blue velvet to denote the Ph.D. discipline. The ensemble is completed with an eight-sided black red 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 Ph.D. hooding in Bovard Auditorium to commencement at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and future academic ceremonies.

Why CAPGOWN Over the USC Bookstore?
Unlike the USC Bookstore, where regalia can be costly and must be ordered according to university deadlines, CAPGOWN fulfills bachelor’s regalia in just one business day—at about half the traditional USC bookstore purchase price. Backed by thousands of verified 5-star reviews from Trojans nationwide, our regalia are praised for craftsmanship, comfort, and durability that last well beyond the ceremony. Each regalia set adheres to USC’s commencement standards, making CAPGOWN the trusted alternative source of regalia for USC graduates. When you wear your regalia from CAPGOWN, you can be sure that you will be among fellow Trojans who have taken graduation photos around Tommy Trojan, Bovard Auditorium, and Doheny Memorial Library and crossed the stage with family and friends cheering them on.

Trojans can also extend their milestone with diploma frames embossed with the University of Southern California seal—the perfect way to showcase years of dedication. Many choose custom tote bags, alumni keepsakes, and Los Angeles memorabilia that carry the spirit of USC into their professional careers.

Each spring, Trojans ask the same questions on r/USC: “Where’s the best place to get my cap and gown?” or “Is there a cheaper, faster option than the USC Bookstore?” The answer is here. This page is your Commencement Central, built for Trojans and their families. At CAPGOWN, we don’t just provide regalia for USC—we help you wear your Trojan achievement, carry your cardinal and gold into the future, and walk out of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum not only as a graduate, but as a living legacy of the University of Southern California.

USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences, USC Marshall School of Business, USC Viterbi School of Engineering, USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism, USC School of Cinematic Arts, USC Rossier School of Education, USC Price School of Public Policy, USC School of Architecture, USC Thornton School of Music, USC School of Dramatic Arts, and programs across the university.
