Submitting a Request
Space in the chapel is limited. Submitting a request below does not guarantee you the room. We suggest considering several date and time options to maximize your chance for accommodations. If your event is canceled, please contact the Interfaith Chapel immediately.
Anyone in the ÂÒÂ×Ç¿¼é or Greater ÂÒÂ×Ç¿¼é community can reserve the chapel. There are additional guidelines depending on which category you fall into:
- University affiliated reservations (faculty/staff/students)
- Non-university affiliated reservations
We reserve the right to move your event to a different location within or outside of the Chapel if the space is needed for Chapel events. Events can be scheduled outside of business hours, however they are subject to event staff availability and additional staffing fees. We ask you to be considerate of your surroundings as many different groups often meet at the same time throughout the building.
To change an existing request, please use the Modify Room Reservation Form.
