Class Ring Program

What better way to show your Terp pride than to wear your official University of Maryland class ring?

Rings are available in 14K solid gold, white or yellow gold, celestrium and more. Browse the different styles within our program's class ring collections at the link below (Traditional Class Rings and the University Collection).

Your ring bears some of our university's most important symbols—icons that will remind you of Maryland and proclaim your Terrapin spirit.

The official class ring is only available to College Park graduates and students who have earned 60 or more credit hours. Its design remains the same for all alumni—past, present and future. Your ring will be an instantly recognizable emblem of your alma mater—it will strengthen the bonds between you, the university and your fellow alumni.
