FIRST-COME-FIRST-SERVE SERVICES

Bus Signs and Digital Ads request forms are open! For these two services, there is no drawing or appointment. You submit the request and we complete your reservation electronically. We fulfill requests in the order in which they are received.

  • Bus Signs
    • Available dates for the Winter 2024 reservation period are 1/14/24 through 5/5/24.
    • There is no deadline for these requests per se, but the earlier you request the space, the more weeks will be available.
    • Space on the buses is finite; when it's full for any given week, the service is no longer available.
    • Many weeks fill up (some within 24 hours of the launch date); others do not. 
    • Request bus signs for student organizations
    • Request bus signs for departments
  • Digital advertising
    • There is no deadline for these requests per se, but you should allow at least one week before your desired start date, especially if you have never used this service before.
    • Unlike Bus Signs, Digital Ad space isn't tightly limited. This means you don't have to plan as far ahead.
