HOW LONG WILL MY PROJECT TAKE?
UNC Marketing & Communications serves the entire UNC community, often working on several projects simultaneously. Because of this, we are unable to accept requests with less than 30 days advance notice. Once reviewed and activated, the average project turnaround time varies depending on a number of factors such as project scope, design complexity, how large it is/content volume and how responsive you are during the project. The timeframes below are intended to be used as a rough estimate and should not be considered as a guarantee of project completion in a specific timeframe.
