Tri-State license plates are a great way to show your pride and support for the University. A $25 tax deductible contribution is given to Tri-State for each plate ordered per year. An additional $15 special recognition plate fee, along with your annual vehicle registration fees, are assessed by the Bureau of Motor Vehicles.

Tri-State license plates are for Indiana residents only. This is a standard vehicle registration plate only issued for passenger cars, recreational vehicles, and trucks weighing less than 11,000 pounds.

You can begin ordering or renewing your Tri-State license plate soon by filling out the online form below and making the $25 contribution to TSU.

Once submitted, a Tri-State license plate application and renewal form will be mailed to you. Take or mail this form to your local license branch, along with your vehicle registration and payment. If you would prefer not to use the online form, please contact the alumni office at 260.665.4316, or the form may be printed and mailed or faxed to the Tri-State University Alumni office.
