Stationery

 

University of Arizona Stationery reflects the look, feel and flexibility of the Arizona brand. We have set up clear processes and cost efficiencies to make ordering your stationery easy and seamless.

Official Stationery

The University of Arizona contracts with WestPress and Fast Design for your official University stationery. Please use the online system through uaccess.arizona.edu.

Colleges, departments and programs should plan your transition to the updated stationery package when the natural cycle requires replacement of business cards, letterhead and envelopes. The campus community is not expected to discard its older version of stationery.

Every university department or unit may order letterhead and envelopes.  Since a business card is for university business use, only university and student employees may order them. Other students do not qualify to receive university business cards.

Employees may carry an official university business card that states his or her name, title and campus affiliation. As a University employee, you are the best brand advocate and representation of the Arizona brand to the world.

University of Arizona staff may order business cards and additional stationery through Arizona BuyWays, via uaccess.arizona.edu. This process allows you to customize an online template with your relevant contact information and submit orders through our contracted stationery vendor, WestPress.

e-Letterhead Templates

E-letterhead templates were created for your e-mailing letterhead needs. They are built in Microsoft Word with Calibri.

The e-letterhead templates are designed to be easy to use and to mimic your current department letterhead as closely as possible. Please contact your brand advisory team with any questions or unique letterhead needs, at brand@arizona.edu.

 

Dos and Don'ts:

  • Do emulate your print letterhead stationery as closely as possible, and follow the guidelines
  • Do use only for email/digital distribution
  • Do use a department/college name on your e-letterhead
  • Do save as secure PDFs if you include sensitive assets, such as digital signatures (refer to help.adobe.com for securing documents with passwords)
  • Don’t use a person’s name for letterhead (only your college/department), consistent with established guidelines
  • Don’t use for printed communication

*If you do not see templates with your department's logo, please contact brand@arizona.edu
