Please note:

  • We do not do same-day printing, even with a rush order. Please see timeline below.
  • File types accepted: PDFs are best. High quality JPGs and PNGs can be used in some cases. We cannot accept Microsoft Office files as there are conversion issues.

Timeline

Student Life Marketing and Graphics is a student-operated resource. Our designers work limited hours and are taking classes full time. It may take a few days to get to your project, even if it is just printing, depending on what is in the queue. These timelines exist so you can plan ahead. 

Anything received after 3 p.m. counts toward the next business day.

Service(s) Time needed
Estimate 24 business hours
Print only Minimum 48 business hours after estimate is approved (if files are sized correctly, additional time if not)
Design only Minimum five business days after estimate is approved and any necessary assets are received
Design and print Minimum two weeks after estimate is approved and any necessary assets are received

Large projects will take additional time. Please contact us at least a month in advance to discuss if your project has a lot of components.

By approving the estimate, you are agreeing to pick up and pay for your order within 30 days of the posted invoice date.

Rush orders

Due to the high-volumn we do not accept rush orders mid-August through September, December and April. Please review our timeline before sending us your request.

A $15 rush fee can be applied to move your order ahead in the queue or for projects submitted past the timeline. This fee is applied for each large print(s) (poster, etc.) or per 100 for small prints (flyers, booklets, etc.).
