If your Student Organization is Student Government funded, Student Activities & Involvement must be involved in all contact with agents for speakers, negotiations, offers, and the completion of the contract. A verbal offer on the phone is considered binding. Student organizations may not legally do contracts with outside vendors. The contract process must begin at least 20 business days (4 weeks) in advance.
For non-Student Government funded organizations you may work with Student Legal Services to review contracts.
If you are approached about a “co-sponsorship” by non-university groups or commercial vendors, please contact Student Engagement’s Office of Event Services to have the inquiry reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Do not reserve meeting rooms for these vendors. Your organization must be the main sponsor and the headliner on all promotional materials (i.e. the Reitz Programming Board presents…). Promotional materials may be reviewed by Student Engagement’s Office of Event Services.
Submitting an Event Permit
Permits need to be submitted AT LEAST 3 weeks (15 business days) in advance. Note that only officers of an organization listed in GatorConnect will be able to submit a permit.
After a permit is approved, an automated email will be sent to the officer who submitted the permit. As a reminder, a permit request does not reserve any space for an event – you will need to go through the office that manages the space.
For any questions regarding event permits please email permits@ufsa.ufl.edu
Approved Fundraising Activities on Campus
Fundraising Activities not Allowed on Campus
The use of animals for research, teaching, or exhibition is closely regulated by the federal government. High standards exist for the care and use of animals at UF. To ensure compliance with all regulations, policies and standards in place to protect animal welfare, Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) members review all requests for approval to use vertebrate animals. Failure by any individual to adhere to these standards can jeopardize the University of Florida’s entire animal use program.
Organizations are responsible for all University Police (UPD) and other related expenses (approximately $365 for UPD).
Requests for tabling reservations can be be made through Student Engagement’s Office of Event Services.
