All space reservations are managed by Albion College with priority given to the College, City of Albion, and business community activities. When not reserved, spaces are open. Reservations are not confirmed unless you have received an email from the campus scheduler* stating that your request is confirmed for a particular space and date.
Albion College reservations for space for classes and ongoing activities at the Ludington Center should be made 3-6 months in advance.
Albion College use also accounts for usage by organizations that are using the space in collaboration with an office of the College. This must be official business and should not include mere affiliation with an organization.
Select rooms are available for reservation/rental by third parties. Third party reservations should be made two weeks or more prior to event date. Payment is due at time of signed rental agreement for third party rentals.

With proof of non-profit status (501(c)(3) or IRS documentation of status), the non-profit price is half that (50% discounted rate) of the for-profit price; for example making the classroom just a $25/hr charge.
