Student Emoji

People

A person wearing a traditional square academic cap, also known as a mortarboard, with a tassel hanging to the side. The figure represents someone actively pursuing an education or someone who has recently completed their studies.

Usage Context

Used to celebrate academic milestones like graduations, share news about starting a new degree, or identify oneself as a learner. It is frequently sent alongside celebratory emojis like 🎓 or 🎉 to mark the end of a long academic journey.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2017, this emoji was introduced as part of the push for gender-inclusive representations of professional and educational roles, moving away from the previously gender-coded versions of the graduate symbol.
