Scheduling Space On Campus
To schedule a space on campus for your event, use the following guidelines:
*Prior to submitting your Space Request, review the portal at my.american.edu to view and determine space availability. Also, review the Room Set-up Styles & Capacities guide to determine an appropriate location for your event based on your event's expected attendance, preferred room set-up style, and event type.
Current executive officers that have signature authority for their recognized student organization may submit a Space Request after it has been approved by their Advisor.
1. Depending on the location that you would like to reserve, pick up or download a Space Request. Space Requests can be located at a variety of locations on campus: Office of Student Activities (MGC 271), or the University Center (MGC 274).
2. Fill out the form in its entirety.
3. Have the form approved and signed by your organizations Advisor.
4. The form is then returned to the University Center, MGC 274 by your advisor.
5. Confirmations are emailed to the requestor's email which should be printed out and present at your event. Notes from UES regarding your event will be in the body of the email.
6. Any changes to your event (attendance, room set-up, date/time) or event cancellations should be emailed to ues@american.edu within three business days prior to your event. Any last minute changes/cancellations, please call the University Center main number, (202) 885-3900.

University Event Scheduling requires at least three (3) business days to schedule an event requiring little or no support service. Reservations for more complex events should be requested at least ten (10) business days in advance.
