Step 2: Choose your mark
University Logo Marks
Departments are encouraged to use official Tarleton State logos when applicable. Find information about logo use in the Branding Guidelines.
Unit Marks
All colleges and university departments have distinguishing marks created by the Marketing and Communications Department on request. Unit marks are approved for promotional materials, table covers and other internally distributed items where it is important to distinguish one campus unit from another.
Merchandise Marks
If your mark will not fit on the merchandise, Licensing can provide a Merchandise Mark.
Note: Marks can only be requested by a department head or with their attached approval.
Step 3: Obtain an art proof from the licensed vendor
Have the licensed vendor provide you with a .jpg, .png or .pdf version of the design in question.
Step 4: Submit your merchandise request form with art proof
Step 5: Receive e-mail approval from Licensing
Forms will be reviewed within 48 hours. Allow at least a week to start on an apparel/merchandise project so a vendor can price, source and decorate items.
Step 6: Order merchandise
An approved merchandise request is the green light to order.
