Student Admit Packet

The Student Admit Packet is designed to create a memorable first impression—one that reflects the pride, spirit, and possibility of coming to the U. This year’s packet was completely reimagined with a sleek, modern aesthetic that showcases the University of Utah’s brand while guiding newly admitted students through key next steps. Housed in a custom folder and envelope, it includes essential resources such as financial aid information, housing options, campus facilities, and important policies.

From the moment students pick it up, the packet delivers a bold, tactile experience through a UV-printed cover, signature Utah Red accents, and strong, attention-grabbing typography. Inside, custom ridgeline pockets echo the Wasatch mountains, while consistent mountain-themed design details create a cohesive narrative. A dynamic photo of the MUSS (Mighty Utah Student Section) offers a glimpse into student life, helping future students imagine their place on campus.

A bright red acceptance certificate and a commemorative magnet add a celebratory touch, transforming the packet into a keepsake. Together, these elements form an informative and emotionally resonant welcome to the University of Utah.
