How do I reserve a room on campus?
  • Use our Event Management System (EMS) to book spaces on campus. Here is our training guide.

 

Why can’t I book further in advance?

  • Our current booking window, for requests with services, is 90 days. This range is set to help our team stay on top of booking requests.

 

Which spaces need approval?

  • When you request to book these spaces in EMS, an email automatically gets sent to the appropriate department requesting permission. If they grant permission, then the Events office will approve the reservation and you will receive a confirmation email.
    • Athletic facilities: including: Franz turf field, Franz grass field, Merlo field, Chiles Center, Beauchamp courts, Pru Turf field, Etzel Stadium, and Shipstad field.

    • Dorm spaces need approval from their Hall Director.
