Banners
Each club is entitled to one printed banner as part of their initial ratification. Banners are a great way to increase visibility during events, tabling, and promotional activities throughout the year.
If your club needs assistance with creating a banner, please submit a design request with the Banner Design Request Form. Please plan in advance and allow 10 - 15 business days for design creation.
If you already have a finalized, print-ready design, please submit your design file through the Banner Printing Request Form to begin the printing process.
Banner designs must follow one of the two approved size options: 62 x 30 inches in landscape orientation or 30 x 62 inches in portrait orientation.
Once your banner is printed (typically within 2 weeks), the Clubs Administrator will contact your club for pick-up at the BUSU front desk.
Clubs may purchase additional or replacement banners at their own expense for $62 plus taxes.
Posters
All clubs are entitled to 250 free poster prints per academic year. Posters are a simple yet effective way to connect with the campus community and build your club’s presence!
If your club needs help designing an eye-catching poster, please submit a request through the Poster Design Request Form. Please allow up to 10 - 15 business days for design creation.
Once your design is finalized and ready to print—or if you already have a poster prepared—you can submit it through the Poster Printing Request Form.
Posters can be printed in either 8.5 x 11 inches (letter size) or 11 x 17 inches (tabloid size).

Logos
