Payment Method

A valid Cost Center number is required when submitting our online order form. Speak to your department’s business office or your PI for your appropriate Cost Center that will cover the cost of your poster. You will not provide us with a funding source such as a grant number.

If your department will not cover the cost of the poster and you need to pay out-of-pocket, you will still need to provide us your department’s Cost Center number for payment, and then you will need reimburse your department directly via personal check. You can also print through FedEx on the medical campus and pay them directly with your personal credit card.

We do not accept cash, credit cards, checks or Bear Bucks.

File Revision Fee

As of January 1, 2025, revised poster files submitted to the Knight ADRC poster service between the hours of 12pm and 5pm on Tuesdays will incur a $20 revision fee per submitted revision in addition to the standard cost of the printed poster discussed below. A list of alternative locations that print posters is provided on our FAQ page.

Printing Cost

Foldable Fabric Prints: $1.00/per linear inch

Costs are calculated on a per liner inch basis. This the length of the amount of material that printer uses when printing your poster. It does not necessarily mean the longest side of your poster, but it often is. We round to the nearest inch when calculating the billable length.

Cost Formula: Length of paper used rounded to the nearest inch x 1 = Total Cost
