Each club/course union may have up to 30 posters printed per event. Note the following when designing your poster:

• Your club name or logo must be clearly displayed
• The UBCSUO name or logo must be displayed. A copy of our logo for poster use can be found here:  UBCSUO Logo
• All event details must be listed correctly. We will not reprint posters due to incorrect information
• Each poster design must have at least 2" x 3" of negative/light coloured space for our approval stamp

When your poster design meets the above criteria, you may submit it to studentassociations@ubcsuo.ca for printing. UBCSUO can accommodate same day printing; however, during busy times we may not be able to print until the following day. We can print standard US letter (8.5" x 11") or tabloid (11" x 17") sizes. Where a preference is not indicated, the standard US letter size will be printed. When putting up your posters, please refer to the following:

• Have your posters stamped at the UBCSUO office or at the GreenText and More Bookstore
• In UNC building you may hang posters on pillars with masking or painters tape only (available at the GreenText and More Bookstore).  DO NOT hang posters on walls, glass, windows, or doors
• In buildings around campus you may hang posters on designated bulletin boards only. DO NOT hang on walls, glass, windows, or doors.

Failure to adhere to this policy will result in your posters being removed by University staff. For complete information, please view the Campus Planning guidelines.

Clubs and course unions may not accept online payments or hold external bank accounts. All club/course union funds must be deposited directly in to the UBCSUO club/course union account.
