All common spaces in the college are considered public space (ie. Commons, Courtyards, Atrium, and Terraces), as such, they are shared at all times with our students and academic community. You will not be able to completely restrict access to these spaces so please consider this as you plan your event.

The first step in reserving a space is to go to https://scheduling.cornell.edu and completing the online form. After the form is submitted you will immediately receive an automated confirmation of your request.  In 1 to 3 business days you will receive an email to notify you if the space is available on the date and time you requested. If the space is available you will then receive an an email notifying you if the event is approved. Please allow another 1 to 3 days for this approval.  The College's Space Use Coordinator may contact you for further details regarding your event before approval is given.
