Only Registered Organizations with at least one student signatory can sign up for lottery.

    • Appointments are not transferable between groups.

  • What to do on my Appointment Day?

    On the date of your lottery appointment, a registered student group’s signatory has two options:

    1. Drop in on a first-come, first-served basis between 9 am – 5 pm.
    2. If you’re pressed for time, sign up for a same-day appointment time. Although you can sign up for an appointment at any point during the day, appointments are only offered between 1:00 pm and 4:30 pm. If you are more than ten minutes late for your same-day appointment, your appointment will be cancelled.

    Please note:

    • Remember to be prepared with alternate choices for meeting rooms, times and dates. Meeting room and banner space allocation is not guaranteed.
    • You must come in to make your lottery reservation on your appointment day. You cannot reschedule.
    • If you miss your appointment day, you can make next quarter’s reservation after the Lottery appointment period.
    • After the Lottery appointment period, appointments are not necessary to make meeting room reservations for the upcoming quarter.

  • What can I reserve?

    • Each registered student organization will be allowed to reserve up to two hours of meeting space per week.
    • Once all Lottery appointments are completed, each registered student organization may reserve an additional two hours per week (for a total of four hours per week)
    • Additionally, registered student organizations may reserve all available meeting space 5 business days prior to the reservation date requested.
