How to request promotional content/ad (banner) in the Michigan App.
Resolution
To request promotional content/ad (banner) in the Michigan App, please complete the ITS-Michigan App Form.
General Guidelines
- Must be related to a university-sponsored or approved initiative, service, or activity.
- Must apply to a more general audience (e.g. all/most students, faculty, and/or staff).
- Should help people to learn about topics and events that support U-M values.
- Promotions are NOT intended to be permanent.
- Promotional content should have a planned posting and removal date.
- Should present accurate information.
- If the topic or event has changed since it was first presented in the Michigan App, then update it to reflect the most recent information.
- Submit promotional content requests no later than five business days before the content needs to be posted.
- Posted during normal business hours (8 a.m. - 5 p.m. M-F), unless there is an off-hours major incident.
- Note: Submission subject to edits and approval.
Banner requirements

Additional Information
At this time we can only accommodate one ad at a time. We will propose a new/display shorter time frame if multiple ads request the same period. We will change the banners at the end of the business day during the week.
We will prioritize ads based on the following:
- University-wide priority
- Relevancy to the Michigan App
- Requested date
- Timeliness of the date to be displayed
- Content
