The Record - The Official Undergraduate Yearbook of the University of Pennsylvania

FAQs

Ordering a Current Edition

  1. How many pages are in the book and what does the book feature?

    The amount of pages vary each year (depending on advertisements, etc) though there are generally 300-400 pages in each book. We cover student life, sports, arts, student organizations, academics, and seniors.

  2. When will the books ship?

    The yearbook includes coverage of commencement so the book is not finished until at least late June or early July. We anticipate that books will be shipped sometime before November of the following school year. Check back on our website for more details.

  3. What should I put for my shipping address?

    To place an order on this website, you must use a permanent shipping address. It is extremely important you have access to that address during the 4-6 month time period after Commencement. Each year we receive many books that are returned because the address the customer gave us is no longer valid. To ensure that you receive your book, please choose your shipping address carefully.

Ordering a Past Edition

  1. I do not see the edition for which I'm looking on your website. What can I do?

    Unfortunately if the edition is not listed on our website that means we have run out of copies.

  2. I only want a single photo from the book. Can I purchase that single photo?

    No, we do not sell single photos from the book. You will need to either purchase the book or obtain your photo from the university library.

  3. Do you ship to international addresses?

    We will do international shipping at a flat rate of $150 for shipping and handling by FedEx.

Booking Your Senior Portraits Appointment

  1. Can I submit a photo I already have for the book? Can I use the photo on my Penn Card?

    To be featured in the yearbook, you must have your portrait taken by our photography company. There are absolutely no exceptions. This is to ensure consistency as well as technical standards required for the printing of the book. No outside photographs are permitted under any circumstances.

  2. How much does it cost to have my photography taken?

    It is absolutely free to have your photo taken for the yearbook. You are not required to purchase any photo packages in order to be featured in the book.

  3. I cannot make the sessions listed on the website currently. How can I make an appointment for a later date?

    The system schedules appointments periodically so you will need to wait until it gets closer to the date you wish to book.
