Ad Astra is a tool mandated for use by all University employees. Its primary function is to streamline the process of reserving rooms for events. By utilizing Ad Astra, we ensure that both University administration and the Office of the Registrar are aware of room availability, facilitating efficient scheduling and coordination.

After submitting your request, keep an eye on your email inbox. Within 24 to 48 business hours, you should receive a notification from notifications@aais.com regarding the status of your request. If your event was approved, you'll receive confirmation, and if it was denied, the email will provide reasons for the decision.

Unfortunately, we require all changes or resubmissions to go through the formal process. You'll need to fill out and submit a new form to ensure accuracy and proper tracking of your request.

We're happy to support catering arrangements for events organized by Honors College faculty, staff and student organizations. The Honors College DOES NOT organize catering arrangements for events not associated with the Honors College.
