Graduation Announcement Etiquette
Once you’ve selected your graduation announcement cards, it’s time to figure out who to send them to, what to write, and when to get them in the mail. Send grad cards to family, friends, teachers, and mentors. Include the graduate’s name, graduation year, school, a photo, and a personal message. If you receive gifts, send thank you notes. To opt-out of gifts, add a simple message like, “Please do not send any gifts. Your support has been the most valuable gift in my life.”
Send your graduation announcements 2-3 weeks before graduation, and party invitations 2-3 weeks earlier for RSVPs. For more from Minted, explore our graduation invitation cards, graduation gifts, thank you cards, and dorm decorations.
