Graduation is a time for celebration. After you walk that stage and toss your cap, there is only one thing left to do before officially starting your post-grad life: have a celebratory dinner. If you’ve been doing enough thinking for the past few years and simply cannot make a decision about where to go for your first meal as a college graduate — especially if a big fancy dinner isn’t your vibe — you can always turn to a reliable spot, one that kept you going through grueling midterm seasons and filled your fridge with leftovers. You know, that one eatery that basically knows your order as soon as you walk through the door? I am, of course, talking about Chipotle.Â
Since opening its first restaurant all those years ago right across from a university campus, Chipotle has been a go-to for college students, to the point where Chipotle created Chipotle U Rewards in August 2025, a student loyalty program where you earn points 20% faster, gain access to college-exclusive rewards and student discounts, because sometimes we all need a little pat on the back. The program’s latest promotion is one for the grads, as Chipotle is offering a gift card promo tied to graduation season.
For a limited time, from May 14 through May 18, Chipotle is offering a graduation gift card promotion to the first 10,000 guests who purchase $40 or more in graduation-themed digital gift cards. To purchase one of these gift cards, just go to the Chipotle online gift card store (you can’t get one in person, which means no waiting in line, yay). If you’re one of the lucky 10,000, you will receive a buy-one-get-one-free entree code. This BOGO code will appear in the user’s online Chipotle cart for valid purchases while supplies last, or at least until it expires on June 30, 2026. The BOGO deal cannot be used in-store, and instead can be applied on the Chipotle website and Chipotle mobile app at participating locations.
