Hire a Designer

Students in the Graphic Design program undergo rigorous training in their field. They may even specialize in specific disciplines, such as branding, web development, publication design, user interface design, and more. What we wish for our students is for them to find fulfilling employment in the industry and hope they’ll occasionally provide their services at no cost for the public good.

Rates

We’re confident you will find our students’ rates very affordable. In fact, they will be way below usual industry rates. What we want to avoid is having them work for no money, or too little money. If you’re looking for free graphic design services for a for-profit endeavour, please enquire elsewhere.

Spec Work

Our students will not work for free—except for non-profits that gives us warm, fuzzy feelings.
