All Office of Global Affairs administrative units should use the UConn Global wordmark. Sub-unit specific wordmarks are available for use. All Wordmarks available have been hyperlinked for ease of use. Access to UConn Global Wordmark is only available to people within the Office of Global Affairs. If you need access, please email global@uconn.edu.

Never refer to the University of Connecticut as UCONN in text—rather use UConn. All capital letters are reserved for the wordmark only.
Use of the UConn Seal is reserved for official documents. Use of the oak leaf is purely decorative.
When co-sponsoring an event, use the UConn Global wordmark, unless multiple UConn units are cosponsoring, then the main UConn wordmark should be used with all co-sponsoring units listed. Marketing materials should not include multiple UConn wordmarks. See incorrect uses on the UConn Brand Standards page: https://brand.uconn.edu/guidelines-usage/incorrect-uses.
When placing a file on a background other than white, use a PNG file to avoid having a white box around the word mark/logo. The PNG file allows for a transparent background that will easily integrate with your graphic.
Do not combine wordmarks or logos. Do not add names, other fonts, or graphics. Never add names or graphic elements to the UConn wordmark.
Complementary artwork must be approved by University Communications and cannot be used in conjunction with the logo but used separately from it.
Wordmarks/logos should be easy to read up against their respective backgrounds. Avoid placing them on busy backgrounds, as this can make it difficult to read. Opt for using a shadow or lift effect to make them stand out from the background. UConn wordmarks are custom image files, do not try to recreate them. Only use approved artwork and lock aspect ratio before scaling.
The size of the wordmark/logo should be large enough to see, but not overbearing. When placing multiple wordmarks/logos from different organizations, make sure they are all uniform in size and proportion. Do not stretch or distort the dimensions -- size up or down with the same ratios as the original.
