Our student class schedules vary widely by college and academic department. However, we offer the following guidance when considering when to host an event.
- Late afternoon (3-5 pm) and early evening hours (5-7 pm) are typically ideal.
- Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday are the best days during the week for events. We have found that mid-day lunch sessions also tend to work on Fridays.
- Our academic calendar is great for checking holidays and other potential campus conflicts.
Your target audience may impact the location that best serves your event. Review the options and work with our team to book something tailored to your needs.
