Logo Policy

SDSU Global Campus adheres to the logo and wordmark policy of San Diego State University.

The San Diego State University (SDSU) wordmarks and primary logos are core elements of the University’s visual identity system. It is the policy of SDSU to invest in a single visual identity, rather than maintain multiple logos (outside of the approved University Logo, Campus Icon, and/or Athletic Icon), as multiple conflicting or competing logos may interfere with SDSU’s cohesive identity and message.
