UniversitiesCustom Phone Grips for Universities & Student Orgs
A phone grip with a school crest or club logo is one of the few pieces of campus swag that survives past freshman year. Students keep the same phone case for years, and whatever is clipped to the back of it rides along the whole time — which makes this one of the highest-visibility, longest-lasting giveaways a department or student org can hand out.
We work with orientation offices, Greek life chapters, club sports, and academic departments throughout the school year, and the use cases cluster around a few recurring moments.
Orientation & welcome week
Incoming-class orientation is the single biggest order window we see from campuses each year. A grip with the university crest or mascot, handed out at a welcome table or tucked into a move-in kit, becomes one of the first branded items a new student owns — and one they’ll likely still have senior year.
Greek life & club recruiting
Fraternities, sororities, and clubs use phone grips as a rush-week giveaway that’s more useful (and more likely to be kept) than a flyer or a button. Chapter letters or a club logo on a grip works especially well with our Mirror or Glow-in-the-Dark finishes for a mixer or a themed rush event.
Athletics & school spirit
Athletic departments and spirit squads order grips in team colors for game days, alongside T-shirts and other tailgate gear, since the low per-unit cost lets a modest athletics marketing budget reach a much larger student section.
| Campus use case | Typical quantity | Suggested style |
|---|---|---|
| Orientation / welcome week | 500–3,000+ | Round Phone Grip, school crest |
| Greek life recruiting | 100–500 | Mirror or Glow-in-the-Dark, chapter letters |
| Athletics / game day | 1,000–5,000+ | Round or Square, team colors |
Choosing for your order
Departments with an annual, predictable order (like orientation) tend to lock in a standard design and reorder each year, while student orgs planning a single event lean toward a smaller run with a more novel finish. Either way, order at least three to four weeks ahead of your event to leave time for mockups and standard production.
