Indoor and Outdoor Space Reservations
Reserving General-Purpose Classrooms
Registered student organizations may reserve general-purpose classrooms by completing the room application form. For the summer and fall semesters, applications are accepted beginning at 8 a.m. on the first working day in May and at 8 a.m. and on the first-working day in December for the spring semester. Only online application forms will be accepted. Rooms are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Please note, there is a $5 per room, per day fee for general-purpose classrooms used on the weekends between 5 p.m. Friday and 7 a.m. Monday. These fees are payable at the Student Organization Center (SOC) counter, SSB fourth floor, on or before the first date of the reservation. Indoor reservations may require an indoor event consultation.
If a paid weekend room reservation is cancelled two working days in advance, a refund may be requested. To begin this process, an authorized representative must e-mail Cindy Martindale to cancel their reservation.
To change a room reservation (date, time, location, etc.), an authorized representative must e-mail Cindy Martindale and include all the information regarding their request. Once the request is processed, an updated room reservation confirmation will be emailed to the organization. Do not fill out a new room reservation application to request changes.
General purpose classrooms are available to student organizations only after all courses, departmental reservations, extension classes, etc., have been booked. This limits the space on campus available to student organizations, the last group on campus allowed to make reservations in these rooms each semester. The Student Services Building and the Student Activities Center are currently the only buildings in which registered student organizations are priority users. Every attempt will be made to accommodate your organization, but understand that general purpose classroom availability is limited.
Please check to make sure the room you are requesting is on the general purpose classroom list (pdf), which is also available in the SOC lobby area, SSB fourth floor.

Reserving Outdoor Space on Campus
Registered student organizations obtain approval to reserve outdoor space on campus through Student Activities. An authorized representative from your organization will need to complete an Outdoor Space Reservation Form, available at the Student Organization Center (SOC). An authorized representative must participate in an outdoor event consultation with a student organization policy advisor, either when you drop off the form or by appointment.
During your event consultation, you will discuss, schedule and confirm your event. This will give you an opportunity to explore any event planning or risk management issues which may be related to your organization's request. Your outdoor space request cannot be confirmed until you have met with a student organization policy advisor and received approval.
