Important Reminders

When making a request through Web App, remember the following:

1. 1. When creating a new request, search for space using the actual start and end time of the reservation (event, meeting, or tabling). If you require extra time before for setup or breakdown, enter this in the Reservation Details section. There will be questions that ask specifically for your requested arrival and departure times.
      
      For example, if you have a meeting from 7:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m., and you would like the room starting at 6:30 p.m. for setup, enter 6:00 p.m. in the question box.
   2. All reservation details (furniture, equipment, A/V, dedicated staffing, food/beverage plans, activities, etc.) must be entered in your Web App request.
   3. Food and beverage are NOT booked through the Student Union Administration. You are responsible for informing the Student Union about your intended F&B plans and, after approval, making the arrangements yourself.
   4. Your request will be reviewed by Student Union staff. After initial review, you will receive an email indicating your reservation has been given “Tentative” or “Tentative Shared Space” status. At that point, you are responsible for providing all additional information requested by your Event Coordinator and returning required paperwork by the deadline, in order for the reservation to receive “Confirmed” status. Your reservation is NOT made until it receives “Confirmed” status.
