Using college/university logos in low budget commercial?

A

AndAction

Hey,

I just shot a low budget commercial today for a small company that helps kids with the college application and admission process. In the commercial I show the logo of several good schools on acceptance letters. Is this legal to do and if not, what would the penalty be? It's not going on TV, just the companies website and social media pages.

Thanks!

Technically, you need clearance. You're at risk of a lawsuit. Although the risk is low, if somebody sues, can you afford a lawyer? That's the penalty.

Making up fake documents is easy so perhaps you do that and and re-edit
