At graduation, students receiving the master’s or doctorate degree wear an academic hood with their cap and gown. In addition to joining the TCU community in celebrating your achievement in the graduation ceremony, the College of Education has a special ceremony for you, your family, and friends called Academic Hooding. At this ceremony you will receive your academic hood by the director of your program. These ceremonies are held at the end of the Fall and Spring semesters. Summer graduates participate in the ceremony set for December each year.
