What is the IU collegiate
license plate?
The IU collegiate license plate provides a great opportunity to support
IU and show your Hoosier pride. This official state license plate features
the red and white interlocking IU logo and proclaims your support for
IU wherever you may travel. The purchase of each IU plate includes a $25
tax-deductible contribution to Indiana University through the IU Alumni
Association, which helps provide scholarships to IU students and valuable
services and programs to the university.
It's easy to get!
The IU license plate is available to all Indiana residents directly
from the Bureau of Motor Vehicles. Just stop by your local license
branch and ask for the IU collegiate license plate. You may also renew
by mail or phone, online or by using any BMV express terminals.
How do I renew my current IU plate in 2002?
A new five-year plate cycle begins in 2002. You will receive a new plate
that you will be able to renew and keep for four additional years. You
may get your new IU plate at your local license branch or you may use
any of the express renewal options provided by the BMV -- mail, phone,
or online by simply including an additional $40 along with your regular
BMV fees. This includes a $25 contribution to Indiana University and
a $15 BMV administrative fee.
I've never had an IU plate, or I want an
additional one for a second car. How do I get one if I'm ordering for
the first time?
If you wish to purchase an original-issue or an additional IU plate
for the 2002-2003 plate year, simply contact your local license branch,
where you may pick up the IU plate. Or you may request your plate by
mail, phone, or online. Your IU plate will cost only $40 in addition
to your regular registration fees. This includes your tax-deductible
$25 contribution to IU and the $15 administrative fee to the BMV.
How does IU get my $25 contribution?
The Bureau of Motor Vehicles will collect and forward the $25 contribution
to the IU Alumni Association. The funds raised by the IU Collegiate
License Plate program help the IU Alumni Association provide scholarship
opportunities to IU students and expand IUAA programs
and services. The license plate program directly funds the IUAA
Scholars and Good
Friends programs.
Personalized plates ...
Don't forget you may now personalize the IU plate. Place your order
for 2003 personalized IU plates at your local license branch before
December 2002. Your plate will be ready in April 2003. Plates may use
a combination of letters and numbers in five spaces. The Indiana BMV
determines the eligibility of your choice.
