Facility Reservations

Academic departments wishing to schedule their academic courses should visit the classroom scheduling guidelines page instead of this one.

Student groups wishing to reserve space in a University facility should become familiar with the information at scheduling.siu.edu, which includes info about and access to the new online facility reservation system.  In addition, student groups should review the following terms and conditions for the use of academic space.

Terms and Conditions for the Use of Academic Space

1. All reservations must be made by an approved Certified Scheduling Officer.
2. All reservations must be made at least five business days before the event.
3. The University reserves the right to cancel this reservation if it conflicts in any way with the general policy of the University regarding meetings on campus; or to change this reservation to other rooms with the understanding that, if possible, comparable space will be provided when the change is necessary.
4. The room must be returned to the state it was found in.  Any unauthorized adjustments will be corrected (by the Physical Plant Service) at the expense of organization using the space.
