Graduation Gifts

Students receive many gifts on the occasion of their graduation. To find out how you could make your gift stand out from the lot, read on:


  1. I-shuffle Player:

    After graduation, it is very likely that a student moves away from home to go elsewhere to study. A music player will be a perfect accompaniment to those long journeys of life to come. He/she will have the I-shuffle forever plugged into their ears.

  2. Suitcases:

    You could get beautiful branded suitcases for a girl or nice backpack bags for guys who are graduating. After graduating, most kids typically move out to their dorms and are always on the move- a suitcase will serve them with a lot of utility.

  3. Career oriented books:

    Give graduating kids books that help in resume writing, help with application process or inspirational books on the field which they further want to pursue. This is an unusual but a useful gift. This will help them pave the way for the future.

  4. Calling cards:

    With the kind of time young girls and boys spend these days on the phone, calling card coupons have become one the most essential things that kids need today. Whether it is just chatting up with friends or taking help from them on assignments over the phone or talking to family- calling cards are just ubiquitous.

  5. Customized Sweatshirt:

    Buy a cool graduation sweat shirt with the name of the boy/girl written with their year and subject of graduation. Take signatures of all their friends and batch mates over the sweatshirt and make it one-of-a-kind for them.

  6. Digital Camera:

    Since it is most likely that students after college move to various parts of the country to study or work further, they would love a digital camera to capture all their memories, journey and moments and send it back home and to all their friends on a social network.

  7. Help in loan repayment:

    It may be a little awkward to dole out cash to a young graduate but offering them help to pay back their graduation loan in instalments, would be like doing a favour. Not only will it save them on paying up a heavy interest rate but this will also allow them to invest more money into their future education.

  8. Tattoo Sleeves:

    Kids in this age bracket love getting tattoos and body piercings. But they also soon after grow out of it. Give them a tattoo sleeve that they can wear whenever they feel like and trash once they grow out of it.

  9. Cuff-links / Brooches:

    It is time for the guys and girls to leave behind their torn out denims and unruly look, and get into the 'grown-up' mode and become better dressed for the work life that they are about to begin. When they start wearing corporate suits, the first thing they will need is smart cuff-links (for the guys) and nice shirt brooches (for the girls) to go with office wear. Let your gift be an indication to them about their coming life.

  10. Laptop Bag:

    A smart laptop bag for a new graduate will allow them to carry their laptop to the office in style. A decent, not too over the top design will also make their bag stand out from the usual boring black laptop bags that people usually carry.

Graduation is the most memorable and important event in a student's lifetime and a special gift will make this even more memorable.
