Graduation Announcement Wording
The beauty of ordering personalized graduation announcements is your ability to say exactly what you want about your accomplishment
. Therefore, you'll want to take some time to consider the options when composing your wording for printing. Factors to take into account when wording your announcements include the style of the announcement itself (traditional, modern, casual), the list of recipients to whom you will be sending your announcements (family, friends, business associates) and your own personality. It's important that the style of your wording fit well with the style of the announcement and your personality. In addition, you'll need to know all the details in advance:
Who is issuing the announcement (parents, yourself, faculty of the school, senior class, a spouse?); diploma or degree obtained; official name of the academic institution bestowing the honor upon you; date and location of graduation ceremonies (include time if guests will be invited).
Here are some samples of
graduation announcement wording to help get you started:
The Faculty and Staff of
(name of educational institution)
announce the graduation of
(name of graduate)
on (day, date, year)
(name of venue)
(address)
(city, state)
OR
It is with great pride that I,
(name of graduate)
announce my graduation from
(name of educational institution)
on (day, date, year)
(name of venue)
(address)
(city, state)
OR
The Senior Class of
(name of educational institution)

(name of graduate)
from (name of educational institution)

OR

OR

my graduation from
(name of educational institution)
on (date)
at (name of venue)
(city, state)
(name of graduate)
If space on the announcement chosen permits, a variety of options are available to spice up the wording and fit your personality. There are a wealth of available verses and quotations which may be added at the beginning of your wording or on a separate panel on the announcement to add variety to the wording. Some graduates choose, instead, to utilize any additional space to invite their recipients to an open house in celebration of their accomplishment. This is easily added at the end of wording or on a separate panel on the announcement paper. The following examples will help get you started:
An Open House
in honor of
(graduate's name)
will be held from
(start-finish times)
at (location)
OR
Help us celebrate
(name of graduate)'s accomplishment
at an Open House
from (start time) to (end time)
(day, date)
(location)
Just make sure that your narrative for the commencement details portion of the wording is in agreement with the narrative of the party invitation. For example, if you announce your graduation in first-person wording, you'll want to make sure that your invitation is also issued in first-person.
One additional option that many graduates prefer to use is to include future plans on the announcement:
(name of Graduate)
will attend
(name of next educational institution)
beginning (date of first term)
OR
Next up:
(travel, education or career plans)
By utilizing the templates included here, and adding your favorite quotation or verse, it is easy to create a
graduation announcement that not only conveys your message, but reflects your personality in a meaningful way.
