Even if you missed the opportunity to purchase a University ring as a student, you can still commemorate your time at your alma mater with a UT Dallas ring.

The ring, made by Balfour, is crafted with a number of important symbols to represent your years as a Comet, including the Texas flag, the seal of The University of Texas System and a comet encircling the Lone Star of Texas.

Austin-based jewelry brand Kendra Scott partnered with Balfour to create a line of modern rings for graduates and alumni.

This year, Balfour collaborated with Austin-based jewelry brand Kendra Scott to create a line of modern UT Dallas rings. The designs can be seen here and feature men’s and women’s options in Kendra Scott’s signature oval-shaped stone with the ability to personalize each piece. Bonus: A free gift is included with any class ring purchase of $150 or more.

“We’re excited to be part of the partnership between our official UT Dallas ring vendor, Balfour, and Kendra Scott,” Brennae Wright, director of annual giving at UT Dallas, said. “This partnership allows our students and alumni to customize their rings more than ever before. We hope to see many different rings at our future UT Dallas ring ceremonies.” 

The partnership between the two aims at reinventing tradition, combining Balfour’s 100-plus years of quality and officially licensed collegiate jewelry with Kendra Scott’s fashion-forward designs for students and alumni.

“Balfour is focused on reinventing tradition, and this partnership accomplishes exactly that,” Scott Blevins, senior vice president at Balfour, said. “The Kendra Scott collection combines personalization with designer fashion in a way never before seen in the class jewelry market.”

Rings can be ordered any time and are available to purchase online or by calling Balfour at 1-800-225-3687.
