On-Campus Event Approval Process

1. An officer from a SDSU Recognized Student Organization reserves a room or location for their event.  If room is in Aztec Center, the officer makes reservation in Aztec Center Meeting Services Office, behind the information booth.  If requesting a classroom or on-campus open space, officer turns in request form in Student Activities and Campus Life.
2. Download an Event Approval Form or pick one up in Student Activities and Campus Life.
3. Organization Officer comes to Student Activities and Campus Life to fill out/submit an On-Campus Event Approval Form (EAF).  The officer submits room reservation confirmation or the classroom or open space request to Student Activities and Campus Life advisor along with the EAF.
4. Officer meets with a Student Activities and Campus Life advisor to submit the EAF (and accompanying documents).  The EAF and room reservation/request MUST be submitted no later than TWO WEEKS prior to the date of the event.
   • Student Activities and Campus Life advisor ensures form meets the two week deadline and makes sure the form is complete and legible.
   • Student Activities and Campus Life advisor contacts the Student Organization advisor (if necessary), Aztec Shops, Environmental Health and Safety, etc. for any needed clearances or approvals.  If necessary Student Activities and Campus Life advisor has organization officer deal directly with requesting offices.
   • If complete, the Student Activities and Campus Life advisor accepts EAF from officer and informs them when the review committee will meet and when they (the requesting officer and the advisor) will hear back from Student Activities and Campus Life to let them know if the event is approved.  During the school year the committee meets each Tuesday morning at 8:15 a.m.
5. Once Event Approval Form as been approved by the review committee:
   • The organization requesting officer and advisor are sent an e-mail notifying them of the event approval.
   • If event is being held in Aztec Center, Aztec Center Meeting Services is notified of the approval.
   • After approval of your event, it is a good idea to check in and reconfirm with all of the parties involved in making your event a success.
   • The approved EAF is filed in the student organization's file.
