Room Reservations
Event spaces in the Business Leadership Building (BLB) may be reserved two weeks to six months in advance while meeting rooms may be reserved up to six months in advance. Reservations are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Exceptions will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and must be requested in writing, to the BLB Event Scheduling Coordinator, and might include conferences and events that need to be publicized more than six months in advance. In order to accommodate the needs of the College of Business (CoB), CoB faculty and staff have scheduling priority and may reserve rooms one year in advance. The College of Business reserves the right to request a group move their event to another location, up to thirty days prior to the event, if the scheduled room is needed for College of Business purposes.
Deposits and Payments
Reservations remain tentative pending receipt of deposit. A deposit in the amount of full room rental is required to confirm a reservation. Reservations may be confirmed with a UNT account number, check or credit card.
Tentative reservations must be confirmed or released within ten (10) business days of the original request. No more than two (2) tentative dates may be scheduled for the same event.
Estimated total balance for an event is required by 12:00 p.m. three (3) business days prior to the day of the event. Failure to comply with the payment schedule may result in the cancellation of the event. Final billing will be sent within ten (10) business days of the date of the event.
Cancellations
Deposits may be refunded if the reservation is cancelled at least ten (10) business days in advance.
Audio/Visual Equipment
Conference rooms and classrooms offer state-of-the-art audio/visual equipment and technical support. To ensure that all of your needs are met, requests must be received ten (10) business days prior to the date of the event. Additional charges will apply for the use of audio/visual equipment that is not standard in the BLB.
