School & University Printing guide
What printing does a school or university need?
Schools print around the calendar: orientation and club fairs in the fall, programs and posters for games and performances all year, and graduation programs, certificates, and photo walls in the spring. Admissions also relies on course catalogs and guides for new families.
Your checklist
- Event tents and banners for orientation and club fairs
- A perfect-bound yearbook or annual catalog
- Programs for games, plays, and concerts
- Graduation programs and certificates
- Course catalogs and yearbooks
- Campus event posters
- Photo-wall backdrops for dances and graduation
- Announcement flyers
Catalogs, handbooks, and yearbooks
Course catalogs and student handbooks print best as saddle-stitched booklets, which are easy to update every year. Yearbooks and thick annual catalogs of 60 pages or more look and last best perfect-bound, with the year on the spine. For recruiting, a tri-fold admissions brochure goes home with every family that tours.
All year: games and shows
Saddle-stitched programs at 5.5 × 8.5" are the classic playbill and game-day format. Posters at 11 × 17" or 12 × 18" cover the hallways.
Spring: graduation
Order graduation programs and certificates early and keep the files in your account for next year. Certificates on parchment or specialty stock feel ceremonial, and a step and repeat backdrop becomes the most-photographed spot on campus.
How much to order, and when
Programs and saddle-stitch catalogs start at 100 copies, and certificates at 100. Banners and event tents can be ordered one at a time. Order graduation pieces early in the spring, and save every file so next year's reprint takes a couple of clicks.
Mistakes to avoid
Waiting until graduation week to order programs. Misspelling student names; check every name on the proof. Using thin banner material for a banner that stays up all year. Printing certificates on paper that won't run through your printer if you plan to add names in-house.
