Have a question? We might have the answer!
- How soon should I book my event?
- We recommend two weeks in advance for any event and 4-6 weeks for larger events. Please allow 24-72 hours for an event to be processed after an I Engage has been submitted. Requests made within a 24-72 hour period must be booked through a UC reservation specialist. See our cancellation policy for more information.
- Can I bring my pet to my event?
- Pets and other animals are restricted in Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC) facilities, grounds, and parking areas. This restriction supports the university's efforts to provide a safe work, learning, and research environment. This procedure helps minimize the health risks and concerns of members of the campus community and aids the maintenance, appearance, and cleanliness of campus facilities.
- What comes with the event space I book for my event?
- For internal clients, tables, chairs, and our basic AV system package, and check in table.
- Do I need to bring my own computer?
- Meeting rooms now support Airplay, allowing clients to cast content from their laptops directly to our TV/projector screens. Clients will now be encouraged to bring their own laptop to cast directly to the screens. Laptops can be signed out from the UC Information Desk at least 30 minutes before your event if needed. (This does not apply to 142 Lonestar Ballroom, 145 Legacy Hall, 147 Anchor Ballroom).
- Are there any hidden fees?
- No. Any fees will be addressed and approved by the client before the event. The UC requests all clients review attached details on the confirmation and confirm an event within at least 5 days. Failure to confirm may result in cancellation or relocation.
