How to reserve space on campus

Space on Columbia’s urban campus is often hard to come by. It is important that you begin thinking about space early in your event planning process, and if you are a recognized student group, it is recommended that you put in space requests during the pre-calendaring process to ensure you get rooms booked. For more information, visit the guide How to use pre-calendaring.

Steps

1. Determine the type of space you are looking for.
   1. Alfred Lerner Hall: Performance space, ramp tables, dance practice rooms, meeting/board rooms, piano Lounge, large event space
   2. Undergraduate Academic Buildings (Hamilton Hall, Kent Hall, Mathematics Hall, Pupin Hall): Classrooms, meeting/board rooms
