Guidelines for Customizing Official OWU Letterhead

  1. This template is designed for the stacked Ohio Wesleyan Logo only; it should not be swapped out with any other logo. If you desire to use a different logo, complete a project request form and University Communications will work with you on a custom letterhead design. 
  2. The Program/Department/Office name can be added (as text) to the right of the logo, centered vertically so as to align with "Wesleyan" in the stacked logo.
    • Please use black or “OWU Red” text.
    • Use a Sans Serif font (preferably something “condensed”), so that the text is as close as possible to the text used in the footer.
