Picking a gift for a new grad rn
A new grad RN has just finished the hardest part of getting here and is now starting the job itself, usually on a unit that's short-staffed and full of first-time problems. The first year is long shifts, a lot of learning on the fly, and the first time they walk out after a bad night and wonder if they're any good at this. A gift that says RN and their new start is a quiet message that the work they put in is seen. A tee for the drive home after a double, a hoodie for the cold break room and the walk to the parking garage, or an 11 oz mug that's clearly theirs for the coffee they'll need at 6 a.m. Adding the year they graduated, or the year they earned the license, makes it personal. The one thing to check is the credential line, since new grads usually want exactly the letters they earned, written the way they'd write them.
New Grad RN gift questions
Can I put a graduation year or my new grad's credential on the shirt?
Yes. Many designs have a second line for a year, a credential or a unit. Type it in and the preview updates so you can check spacing before you order.
What should I write for a new grad RN?
Most people use RN and the year they graduated or passed their licensing exam. If they earned a specific credential or have a preferred unit, add that instead.
Are there matching shirts for a whole nursing class?
Yes. Use the Team Shop to pick one design and paste the names of your graduating class. Each person gets a shirt with their own name on it.
What sizes do the new grad rn shirts come in?
Adult tees come in S to 3XL. Hoodies, kids tees and onesies list their own sizes on each product page.
How long does a new grad rn gift take to arrive?
Each order is printed after you place it, in 2 to 4 business days, then ships by ground in 3 to 5 business days. The product page shows the delivery window for today's orders.
What if the print has a mistake?
If we print something different from the preview you approved, or it arrives damaged, we reprint it free.
