Reservation Requests

Reservations can be made by completing a request via the GT Campus Event Management System. Reservation requests must be received at least three (3) business days in advance of the event start date. Room cancelations must be made 72 hours in advance of any scheduled reservation to avoid a $50.00 cancelation fee.

Reservations are not official/confirmed until written confirmation has been issued. Confirmations will be sent via email within three to five business days of submitting the request. Do not announce or publicize any event dates/times/locations until an official confirmation has been received. Reservations are made on a first come, first served basis.

The Student Success Center reserves, at its sole discretion, the right to relocate an event to a space similar in size and layout. This right will only be exercised in emergency or extreme situations after other options have been exhausted and after consultation with the reserving/affected group.

Non-Georgia Tech individuals are permitted to rent event spaces at the Student Success Center at external group rates. Members of the Georgia Tech faculty/staff are permitted to rent the Student Success Center facilities to host approved events that are unrelated to their job functions, but external pricing rates apply.

Cancellation Fee

Event cancellations must be made a minimum of 72 hours in advance of the scheduled reservation to avoid a $50 cancellation fee. Event hosts that no-show for their reservation will be charged in full.

Please note that organizations that "no show" three (3) or more times on their reserved event space will be suspended from booking future events at the Bill Moore Student Success Center for the following six (6) months.

Space(s) held for back-up to an outside event as a rain plan must notify the Student Success Center Reservations team at least 48 hours in advance from the start of the event. Notification must either confirm use of the space or cancel the space reservation. These spaces must be designated clearly when booking by placing "Rain Plan" after the event name.

Rain Plan events scheduled on Mondays must notify the Student Success Center Reservations team by Friday at noon to confirm use of the space or cancel the space reservation.

Cleaning Fee

For events ending after 8:00 pm on weekdays and at any time on Saturdays and Sundays, a mandatory $200 cleaning fee will be applied to the reservation. This fee does not include the removal of trash from your event space. It is your responsibility to assist the onsite event coordinator in removing your trash from the building. Thank you for your cooperation!

There is no cleaning fee for events occurring Monday – Friday ending before 8pm unless excessive trash is found.
