Auburn Ring FAQ

Q. How many hours are required to be eligible to get a ring?

A. Seventy-five.

Q. Do my transfer hours count towards the seventy-five required to get a ring?

A. No, transfer hours do not count, but all Auburn graduates are eligible to order a ring during the semester in which they are graduating!

Q. Can I get a custom ring?

A. We only carry the traditional rings that are shown on the Balfour website. The reasoning behind this is so that the entire Auburn Family can be unified through the one Official Auburn University ring. For this reason, we are no longer able to customize rings other than the engraving.

Q. How can I find pictures from Ring Night?

A. For the fall 2023 ceremony, the photographers will be Zap Photographers. Their team will have several QR codes posted around the event space for attendees to scan and receive information on how to get their photos, and also will be handing out business cards with the same info available.

Q. If I have problems with shipping and receiving my ring, how should I handle that?

A. Contact the Balfour representative for Auburn University, Pearson Alsobrook at pd.alsobrook@gmail.com.

Q. Do I need to wait until ring week to order my ring?

A. You can order a ring at any time, but in order to be included in Ring Night you must order your ring during ring week.
