YPPS offers two ways of ordering business cards for Yale faculty, staff and students. For low cost and quick turnaround, you can order cards online from our Online Template Business Cards. An easy-to-use web interface lets you choose from a variety of Yale and School or department-based templates, enter and edit your information while viewing the layout of the card online, and enter billing and delivery instructions all from your computer.
If the online template cards don’t suit your exact needs, you can order Custom Business Cards from YPPS by filling out a YPPS work order. One of our staff will work closely with you to either match a card you currently use or create a new one based on your specifications, while adhering to the standards admissible for Yale business cards (see below).
All business cards are printed on the premises by YPPS using either offset or color laser printing according to the style of card selected. Special features such as embossing are available through the Custom Business Card option. Please see below for more details on each of these ordering options.
PLEASE NOTE:
In an effort to standardize the presentation of Yale’s new university logo, the Yale President’s Office and the Office of the University Printer have developed new guidelines and templates for use of the new Yale brand. These designs were presented to and approved by the Deans and Directors. Along with the new template, standardized stocks have been selected for the various printed pieces. Please review your proof using the new layout for accuracy and make corrections or give the approval for print.Online Template Business Cards
