Purdue University Trademarks & Licensing

Obtaining a license through CLC requires thought, research, and commitment. Those companies capable of exhibiting a commitment to the collegiate market who have established production and distribution capabilities and/or who offer a new or unique product will be granted the opportunity to obtain a license.

The licensing process varies in length, based upon the licensees' responsiveness in meeting CLC's/Purdue's policies and requests throughout the process and how quickly they meet the requirements. The process is divided into three stages:

  1. Complete and submit a CLC licensing application.
  2. Submit designs and/or samples incorporating the marks of the institution; obtain product liability insurance; purchase CLC holograms per the labeling requirements; complete product specification sheets; and complete Authorized Manufacturer's Agreement (if applicable).
  3. Execute the CLC Standard Retail Product License Agreement and the CLC Special Agreement regarding Labor Codes of Conduct; provide factory site disclosure; and pay all advance and administrative fees.

If you are interested in obtaining a license through CLC, please follow the link below and provide the requested information. Once the form is completed, you will have access to the CLC application.
