Things to Consider When Ordering

All purchases using or featuring the name of the University and/or one of our logos must go through an approved licensed vendor. A list of our approved licensed vendors can be found at https://clc.com/license-search/ by completing a search for the university’s name. This list is kept current, so please check before ordering to verify the vendor is still licensed.

2. All purchases featuring designs must adhere to our brand standards guidelines and meet approval through our licensing program. 

3. Any items ordered by an office, department or student group for internal consumption or to be distributed as handouts for promotional purposes are considered internal orders and falls under Internal License holders when selecting a vendor to use. 

4. Any items ordered by an office, department or student group that will be resold openly to the public or on campus, is considered royalty bearing and falls under the Standard License holders when selecting a vendor to use. This includes items to be used for fundraising. It is the responsibility of the office, department or student group to communicate this intention to the licensed vendor so that they can adequately record and collect the royalties in accordance with their licensing agreement to be distributed back to the University. 

5. When ordering signage, vinyl lettering or any wall mounted graphic, please contact the University Press for consultation or purchasing, since this qualifies and falls under our Print Policy.
