A-FRAME REQUESTS
***Prior to submitting your request, check the A-Frame Calendar for availability***
Availability is indicated by blank cells in the ORANGE table for each date.

- $75 per location for 10 business days.
- Each additional location is $75.
This rate is subject to change if outlined procedures are not followed.
As of 5/2022, we will only be servicing a-frames once weekly. Ads will run from Wednesday to Wednesday – 14 days. If you would like your ad removed after one week, you will still be charged in full. If you would like your ad to run for more than 14 days, this must be communicated prior to your confirmation.
Once your advertisement schedule has been confirmed, you may no longer make changes to your order.
- A-frame requests and artwork must be submitted no later than 10 working days before the desired start date.
- Prior to submitting your request, check the calendar for availability.
- To submit your A-frame request please follow this link: Work Request
- A-frame orders must have final artwork attached. If final artwork is not included, the work order will be denied and canceled.
- This allows us to operate efficiently and keep the base price to a minimum.
- In the event campus is closed, scheduled A-frames will not be placed or removed until the next available workday.
- Upload your artwork file to the Facilities Management Customer Portal when selecting problem code: A-frame Advertisement. (See example below)
Once you submit your order, you will receive a confirmation stating your request has been received and a work order has been made. Placing a work order does not guarantee your A-frame can be scheduled. After request is reviewed you will be contacted if changes need to be made to artwork, dates or locations. Once artwork and request are approved, you will receive a final confirmation that your A-frame request is scheduled.
