In partnership with Mason's Office of University Counsel, Creative Services reviews and approves requests for a third-party to use Mason's logo.
What is an Admin 1130 review?
Are you working with other sponsors to put on an event? Has a third-party organization expressed interest in collaborating for a speaker series or initiative? In these cases and more, your partners may request to use the Mason logo on their marketing materials. All organizations external to Mason (third-parties) must receive prior approval from Creative Services to use the Mason logo.
What projects should I submit for review?
- Any request from an organization outside George Mason University to use the Mason logo, unit logo, or other trademarked graphic
- Any contract with an outside organization that includes Mason name or logo use
How do I submit a request for review?
To request a review, send an email to creative@gmu.edu and include "Admin 1130" in the subject line. Allow three business days for us to review your materials and provide feedback.
Please include the follow information
- Specific information on how the Mason logo would be used
