Graduation Cap black filled icon

About the Graduation Cap black filled icon

A mortarboard graduation cap seen from the front, with a wide flat square board sitting on a rounded crown and a thin tassel hanging from the right corner. It stands for finishing a degree or a course, so it fits university and school sites, e-learning platforms, course completion badges, alumni newsletters and scholarship pages.

The board is drawn in perspective as a diamond, which gives depth without shading, while the cap body below is a simple cylinder. It pairs with book, diploma and certificate icons. Keep the tassel at the same stroke weight as the board so it survives at 24 px.

This is the solid black filled version of the graduation cap icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
