Reservations

Recognized Student Organizations, University Departments, and Non-University clients may reserve Campus Recreation space for events, meetings, and activities.

For reservations and events that involve using a space without modification, requests must be submitted a minimum of two-weeks prior (i.e., using the MWC Classroom for a meeting). For larger reservations and events that require modified set-up and/or do not use the space as it was intended, requests must be submitted a minimum of four-weeks prior (i.e., using a gym in the MWC for a tradeshow). The required lead time for events is up to the discretion of the Facilities Coordinator. The date of the reservation must fall within the current semester. Certain exceptions may be allowed.

Please review the appropriate category below and the Campus Recreation Reservations and Events Handbook [PDF File] prior to submitting your reservation request.

 

Recognized Student Organizations

If you are a recognized student organization at SF State, you may submit a request. Reservation requests must be submitted by a Student Organization leader that has completed Student Leader Orientation. Student Organizations are not able to reserve space over the summer. Prior to confirming your reservation request, our team will verify if the student submitting the request has completed all the necessary steps. Failure to do so will result in a denial of request. 

To submit a request for reservation: fill out our Reservation Request Form. Once you’ve submitted the reservation request form, the Reservations Student Managers will reach out with additional information.  If you have questions, please contact us at: recrequest@sfsu.edu
