Do People Send College Graduation Announcements?

What is a Formal College Graduation Announcement?

These announcements serve as a formal announcement of the graduate's accomplishment, providing recipients with details about the individual's academic journey, degree earned, and the institution from which they graduated. It's a meaningful way to keep loved ones informed and invite them to share in the joy of this significant milestone.

What to Include on Your Graduation Announcement

A graduation announcement for college includes traditional details and themes. Traditionally, it features wording only (no photos), and mentions the grad’s commencement date, university and college degree. More modern announcements include photos too! 

If you’re graduating from medical school, and have a new title such as RN or MD, this is an extra special achievement that deserves announcing. Our professional graduation announcements for nursing degrees feature themes and styles that reflect your specialty.

A master’s degree is another special accomplishment that deserves announcing. Classy  foil graduation announcements with script fonts are especially popular for this kind of accomplishment. 

How Can I Personalize a College Graduation Announcement?

If you’re looking for a simple look, choose a design that features one photo or no photo at all. A traditional style in black and gold is a wonderful choice if you want to keep things formal. For an extra special touch, choose a style with classy, personalized foil-stamping to make your accomplishment shine – literally!

Inviting your loved ones to your commencement ceremony? Sending commencement invitations is a great way to mark the occasion and save the date for the occasion. Your friends and family will love holding your unique invite in their hands instead of receiving it by email or text. You can even add pictures for a custom and elegant look.
