Use of any UCLA logo requires written permission in advance of use. Please note that permission to use a logo (school, center, department, university, etc.) is reviewed and evaluated on a ‘per use’ basis, meaning that even if its use has been previously approved, each new use must go through the same review process; this is a university requirement. The logos and review systems are campus-wide, so please allow as much review time as is possible for your project.
Required Permissions Process
Please note that, according to university policy, use of any UCLA logo requires advance submission and written approval via the marks.ucla.edu system. Please incorporate as long a lead time as possible for your project, keeping in mind that the review process can take a week or more.
UCLA Fielding faculty and staff are encouraged to use the school's branded PowerPoint templates for official presentations. The PowerPoint templates are available here.
UCLA Fielding faculty and staff may use school and department stationery and envelopes for approved, official written communications. (Digital stationary is also available for use.) To obtain stationery or envelopes, please contact the appropriate representative in your academic department or administrative office.
UCLA’s authorized stationery printer is Castle Press. Please note that while it is possible to order printed stationery with an academic department logo at the top, the university requires that all envelopes include only the school's logo.
Current UCLA Fielding School faculty, staff, graduate students, and post-doctoral scholars may request business cards from their appropriate academic department or office representative. Business card orders should be placed with UCLA-approved vendor Castle Press.
UCLA requires that all business cards are horizontally-oriented (landscape design). The university does not allow academic department logos to be used for business cards; the school logo is used.
UCLA Fielding students must receive advanced written permission from their academic department representative for business cards to be issued in their name. Student business cards must indicate clearly that the student is currently enrolled in the UCLA Fielding School, using the following system:
