COMMUNITY EVENTS FAQ

A Community Scheduling Request form may be submitted for review up to 90 days in advance.

Toggle ItemHow do I schedule additional support (Custodial, Audio/Visual Support, etc.)?BYU–Hawaii has centralized scheduling. The availability of the resource is just as critical to scheduling as finding an open space. You should submit your request for custodial, setups, audio/visual support, catering, etc. at the same time as you request your room. Support limitations may be applied.
-
Toggle ItemWhat if I need to change my plans?You will be assigned an event coordinator who will counsel you through your event planning. Changes can be made if there are available resources (manpower and space). No changes can be made within two business days of your event to enable support staff to appropriately plan their own workload. Thinking critically while planning your event will help mitigate late changes.
