Graduation thank you cards

Show your gratitude with our wide selection of high school and college graduation thank you cards. Thank friends and family with a smart design and your own personal message.


Congratulations on your graduation, it's a huge accomplishment!

So, how did you celebrate this momentous occasion? A dinner after the ceremony, or maybe a pool party or beach bonfire? Maybe you went dancing with close friends, or your family rented out a venue for everyone including your distant cousins, to come share cake and speeches about you. No matter how you celebrated, hopefully you know now what has always been true—there are a lot of people around you that are proud of you and rooting for your success.

Now, it’s time to thank them. Gracias, merci, arigato, shokran, grazie, mahalo—there are so many ways to say thank you. For some, it’s hard to fully capture an all encompassing appreciation of the people in your life (even in one or two languages!), but hey, we can try. A beautifully designed card is a great place to start.

You can select your graduation thank you cards from our classic Card offerings. There are a lot of different themes to choose from, depending on your taste and who you’re sending the card to. Florals, outer space, birds and animals, polka dots and playful designs, funny and punny cards, elegant lettering, and of course customizable photo cards. Beyond thanking people for coming to your graduation celebration or for giving you gifts, you can tailor your messages to each recipient more deeply, depending on your relationship. Maybe you want to thank your parents or guardians and family members for always giving you moral (or even financial) support. You could thank your professors or academic mentors for their valuable guidance in getting you to where you are now. You can thank your friends for being there through all the ups and downs of school and college life. We’re always adding new designs, so there’s a wide range to choose from if you want to customize each thank you to a specific personality. We also have recipient tracking, so you’ll always know if your card arrived successfully and if it was opened.

If you want to tweak things a bit, you can! You have the option to rewrite the preformatted thank you message. You can also adjust the type spacing, select new fonts, and choose your favorite colors for the text. Put on the finishing touches and spruce up the envelope. Select matching liners and digital backdrops and choose from a beautiful array of stamp designs. Stuck on how to design your graduation thank you cards? Never fear, our Personal Design Services team is here! A specialist can help you out and we’re happy to work with complex design requests or add customized text and media. Don’t hesitate to contact a specialist for complimentary custom design services for both Cards and Flyer.

Once your college graduation thank you cards are ready, you can go ahead and send them. Included with your account is recipient tracking, so you’ll know when your card has been received and opened. So, what are you waiting for? Scroll through our graduation thank you cards, find a design you like, and hit Customize. We’re here to help every step of the way so just give us a shout if you need anything.

Once you’re all set and you’ve sent every last thank you, you can sit back and relax, and start daydreaming about your summer and life after school. It could include a high school reunion, or maybe flipping burgers by the pool in July. No matter what you’ve got going on, we’ve got you covered; and if you’re looking for inspiration, maybe our blog can help you there too.
