The Best College Graduation Gifts You Can Get Your New Grad

Grad season is coming up. It’s time to think about college graduation gifts. “But Kursteen, what can I get my new college grad? It seems like they have everything!” No need to worry, I can tell you which gifts are the best college graduation gifts you can get your new grad.

1. A New Laptop

For the first couple of years of college I had been using an old Dell laptop. After a while it decided life on earth didn’t seem so appealing anymore and it died. I decided I wanted to get a MacBook. After a life of androids, I wanted better products. So when I took my break from school, I saved up my money and bought a brand new MacBook Air. I’m literally using it to type this article. It’s pricey but it’s a great product. It’s reliable and I’ve never had a problem with it. Even though I’m still in school, I’m sure your college grad would appreciate it now that they’re graduating. Just because they’re finished with school, doesn’t mean the need for a laptop goes out the window.

2. A Coffee Maker

As an avid coffee drinker, I couldn’t have survived college without my coffee maker. I mean I could have but I don’t think I would have been delighted to spend a lot of money every week at Starbucks. As expensive as college is I’d rather invest into a product than spending money each week for the same results. Also, getting up extra early to stand in line and wait isn’t favorable to anyone. A coffee maker is more convenient than all of Dunkin, Starbucks, and Marylous combined. Now that your grad is on the way to a new career, I’m sure they will still need their coffee in the morning.

3. A Pair Of Brand New Headphones

I’m sure your new college grad is going to have to commute to their new job, or they just like listening to music all day, every day. Why not get them a brand new pair of headphones? I know when I forget my headphones at home, my whole day is ruined. I used to use flimsy little earbuds that would tangle all of the time, but with headphones there’s no tangling and better noise-blocking technology. Better noise blocking means a better chance of not hearing the world, because what would your grad want to hear, two people fighting on the train or their favorite song or audiobook?

4. A Mug With A Graphic Design

Let me tell you, there’s nothing in this world I love more than a good graphic design except coffee. So why not get your college grad the best of both worlds: a mug with a graphic design! I have a whole shelf full of mugs with designs on them. Picking out a different mug every day is a fun way to mix up your morning routine. I’m sure your college grad will appreciate it.

5. A Record Player

When they don’t feel like using their headphones, a new record player is one of the most perfect college graduation gifts. Record players have come back in style. Whether they’re still living with you at home or they have their own apartment, your college grad will love a record player to play all of their favorite music.
