ANNOUNCEMENT ETIQUETTE

Announcements
Your personalized announcement is a formally worded message to announce your graduation. There is no limit to the number of announcements that a prospective graduate may choose to send. However, the University asks that actual attendance at the ceremonies be limited to no more than six (6) guests per undergraduate. Prospective undergraduates should have confirmed reservations for specific ceremony dates and times before inviting guests to attend. Receiving an announcement does not obligate giving a gift.

Mailing
Mail your graduation announcements six weeks prior to the date of the ceremony.

Envelopes
Traditional announcements provide two envelopes. The larger envelope, with the gummed flap, is the outside envelope. It should be addressed from you personally using a minimum of abbreviations. If you wish, the return address may be written on the back. The smaller envelope, without the gummed flap, is designed to hold your announcement. The text of the announcement should face the flap. Do not seal or tuck in the flap. This envelope should be addressed in a more personalized manner, using terms of familiarity. The enclosure envelope flap should face toward the address side of the outer envelope.

Thank You Notes
A short personal message on a thank you note is the gracious way to acknowledge any graduation gift. Several styles are available at the UCSB Bookstore.
