what are graduation announcements

Graduation announcements are cards used to inform friends and family of the graduates academic achievement, and they do not include an invitation to the graduation ceremony or a party. They are typically sent after the ceremony, beginning the day after graduation and for the following two weeks. Graduation invitations, on the other hand, are used to invite loved ones to the graduation ceremony or a party. The difference between the two is that the announcement is a formal way to share the news that youve graduated, while the invitation invites loved ones to your celebration. It is possible to combine both greetings into one card. Graduation announcements can be used to network, especially for college graduates, and should include additional information such as the graduates major, degree, and other accomplishments. High school graduation announcements are typically more casual than college graduation announcements, but they still need to highlight key high school achievements and any plans for the future. Graduation announcements are a keepsake for the graduate and their family and can be included in a photo book or framed.
