College Police Lion Patch — Order This Torch and Seven-Point Star Design
Design S1769A at a glance
A seven-point star with a navy merrowed edge, carrying a shield with a lion rampant holding a torch. Four lettering lines name the college, the police department, a two-part motto and an established year. Silver, royal blue and white give it a cool, polished look that reads as both academic crest and law enforcement star.

About this lion and torch college star
The lion rampant is one of the oldest figures in collegiate heraldry, and the torch it holds stands for knowledge passed on — together they make a natural seal for a college police department. Mounting that shield on a seven-point star, a classic law enforcement outline, keeps the patch from reading as a school souvenir. Silver and royal blue keep the palette cool and formal.
Order it as shown or adapt it: set your college name, motto and year in the lettering, recolor the shield in your school colors, or swap the lion for your mascot holding the torch. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

College police lion patch questions
Can our mascot replace the lion?
Yes. Send your mascot or crest and we redraw it holding the torch on the shield at no art charge; the 4-hour mockup shows it on the star.
Can the lettering carry our college name and motto?
Yes. All four lines restitch to your wording — college name, department line, motto and year — and your proof shows each in place.
Why a seven-point star instead of a five-point?
The extra points spread the lettering more evenly around the edge and set a college department apart from municipal five-point stars.
Is a gold version available?
Yes. Gold on navy stitches beautifully for dress uniforms; preview it in the markup tool and quote it beside the silver duty version.
How do I send changes?
Use the markup tool in the quote form to circle the lion or torch, pin notes on the lettering and try colorways. The marked version attaches to your quote.
