Internal YSU Faculty, Staff or Students, please use this Event Request Form to reserve space at the ETC. External requests can be made by calling 330-941-2357, Emailing ETC@ysu.edu or stop by the front desk to inquire.

ROOM RESERVATION COSTS

Rooms at the ETC can be reserved on both an hourly and daily cost.  Costs range from $75 to $500.00. There may also be additional fees, too, if your event requires the building to be open beyond normal hours of operation. Other additional charges to consider are police / security service, parking fees and catering costs.
