:: Event Planning by Student Organizations at NAU

The Office of Student Life assists student organizations in planning and organizing events and activities.  We are available to consult with you and members of your organization throughout the year during our walk-in (Monday - Friday, 1-5 p.m.) or by appointment.

We publish a Student Organization Guidebook that contains complete information about event planning that may be useful to your organization.  If your organization has not received a copy of the Guidebook, please let us know. 

The Event Planning Process    

          Involve your organization and your advisor in planning the event.

Schedule a meeting with a staff member in our office to review your  proposed event or  activity.  Schedule your meeting with a staff member in our office at least two weeks prior to the event to assure that appropriate arrangements can be made.  We maintain open office hours for walk-in meetings Monday - Friday 1 - 5 p.m.

We will assist you in making contact with appropriate university offices, reserving facilities, arranging contracts, arranging for ticket sales, and collecting appropriate approvals.  We are here to assist YOU!

Our office will provide you the final approval for your event and will provide you a copy of the approval.
