16 Grad Gifts That Prove The Tassel Is Worth The Hassle

Graduation season is upon us and while it’s been a fair few years since I walked across the stage at my University, I would hope that I’m still with it enough to recommend some killer graduation gift ideas. Shopping for a recent graduate is somehow both easy and challenging: They need pretty much everything (especially if they’re moving into a new apartment or starting a new job), but also hardly ever mention anything specific when you ask them what they need. In their defense, they were probably in the middle of studying for a final when you called!

There’s no doubt about itgraduating college is weird. Happy, yes, but also very strange, especially in 2021. So it makes sense that finding the perfect gift for a graduating college senior would be a little tricky, too! Most of the gifts on this list are small enough to pack in your carry-on if you’re hopping on a flight to see the student in your life walk across the stage at their commencement, but big enough in terms of gesture that you’ll totally make their day. So whether you’re shopping for your sibling, your child or just your long-distance bestie, I’ve got you covered.

I can’t guarantee that your beloved grad will get their dream job within a week of coming home, but I can promise that these gifts will make all their hard work in school feel worth it. From high-tech beauty tools to jewelry, this list has got it all. Read on to shop 16 of the best grad gifts on the market, from brands like Dyson, Mejuri, Coach and more.

You can’t go wrong with a simple pendant necklace. This gold vermeil pick from Mejuri will coordinate with basically any other piece of jewelry, so you know she’ll wear it every day. Plus, it will look so cute in her grad photos!

A Trendy New Perfume

She’s probably seen this perfume all over Instagram, so why not treat her to it? It’s full of fresh notes like bergamot, mint leaf and green peppercorn, so it’s a far more elevated option than those sweet scents she probably wore in high school or college.

Some Bougie Bedding

These linen sheets from Parachute Home will keep her cool now and cozy when the weather cools down. Gifting her an entire bedding bundle (especially if she’s moving somewhere new post-grad!) is practical, but still feels like a treat.

A Cute New Going-Out Bag

Going out is finally becoming a thing again this summer, so gift her a cute little bag to match all of her new outfits. She probably already owns a black purse, so a pink option adds a fun pop of color to her post-grad wardrobe.

An Everyday Planner

Her old planner is probably full of school-related notes (or simply worn-out from all the use), so it’s definitely worth replacing. Give the Gen Z grad in your life a gift from the Gen Z queen herself, Ms. Emma Chamberlain, by way of this planner.

A Purifier For Her New Space

A clean home is a gift within itself. This Molekule air purifier is so quiet, she’ll hardly hear it when it’s on. Plus, it’s controlled by an iPhone app, so she won’t ever forget to change the filter.
