Orientation Resource Fair & Advertising Opportunities

  External Company Cost UNT Department Cost
Transfer Orientation & Graduate Orientation $2,500 $0
Freshman Orientation ONLY $2,500 $0
ALL Orientations* $4,000 $0

*University commitments prevent certain vendors from participating in one or both Resource Fairs. For questions regarding exclusions, contact Stephanie Brown at stephanie.brown@unt.edu

Information about resource fair locations, including the time of the event and location, can be found on the Resource Fairs webpage as well as in the confirmation emails sent to participating vendors prior to each orientation session. If you are a registered sponsor and are not receiving confirmation emails, please email freshman@unt.edu. Reminder emails will be sent two business days prior to each session.

 

Connections Magazine Ads 

EVERY Orientation participant, students, and family members receive a copy of the “Connection Magazine.” This full-color publication offers a convenient and affordable way for local businesses and services to reach the orientation audience. The magazine also includes information from on-campus departments, programs, and services.

We would love for you to consider designing your Connections ad like a coupon. You'll be able to measure the impact of your investment, and this tactic might motivate our students and parents to pay your establishment a visit.

If you purchase an ad in the Connections magazine, please send your file to Laura George (Laura.George@unt.edu) in either pdf or jpg format. The deadline to purchase a Connections Magazine advertisement is Monday, April 1, 2024. This is a firm deadline.
