How far in advance should I order graduation printing?

For graduation printing, order at least 3 to 4 weeks before your event. Graduation season peaks in May and June, so the earlier you order during those months, the smoother the process.

• Design approval: time to finalize names, dates, and layout.
• Printing: the production window for your pieces.
• Shipping: transit time to your door.
• Peak-season buffer: extra days to absorb the busy graduation rush.

Building in that cushion protects you from last-minute stress. If your event is sooner, check whether rush production is available.
