  1. You will receive your annual tags & taxes statement from the State of Kansas.
  2.  Included in the statement will be your $30 donation to the FHSU Alumni Office for being an FHSU plate holder. 
  3. Only one payment transaction will be needed when paying your statement (FHSU Alumni Office donation and tags/taxes all in one).

How do I transfer my current tag from one vehicle to another?

Transfers can be done directly in the treasurer’s office.

What is the $30 used for?

The $30 annual donation paid to the FHSU Alumni Office is tax-deductible. This donation, minus a small administrative fee, will be added to the FHSU’s alumni generational scholarship fund and programs in recognition of student achievements. 

What if I have already renewed my tag for this year?

You will be eligible to immediately switch from your current tag to the Tiger tag for a minimal fee aside from the $45.50 special plate fee.

Can I choose my tag number?

Tag numbers are consecutive numbers issued at random. The state of Kansas does not allow education license plates to be personalized or specific numbers to be selected.
