We are not responsible for editing or formatting posters that were not originally created in the Word Processing Center.
We will review the poster to ensure it is for Valencia academic purposes, personal posters will not be printed.
After the poster has been printed, you will receive an email notifying you to pick up the poster in the Word Processing Center. If you do not receive an email within one business day, please contact Word Processing at (407) 582-2258.
