Several forms are available in the Admin area to authorized leaders of recognized student organizations. The forms can be accessed as follows:

- Click “Events” on the navigation menu on the left panel.
- Click “All Events” on the submenu.
- Click the “Add Event” button.
- Complete the basic event information form (name, date, time, location, …) and click the “Save” button.

Helpful Resources: An online training module for Utilizing the Get Involved Event Planning Form is available as is an Event Form Guide (PDF).
Event Planning Form Reviewers (not Approvers): In addition to clicking the link in an email requesting your review of an event proposal, you can also get to the review section by clicking the “Dashboard” link at the top right of the home page after logging in, clicking “View Reviews” on the next page, then clicking the appropriate review title from the list that is shown.
Do More With Events: After submitting your Event Planning Form, Get Involved will help you do more with your event including promote it, accept RSVPs, track attendance, and analyze demographics of your audience.
Concessions Permit Request Form
Per University Rule 21.99.09.M0.03, recognized student organizations, departments, colleges, and divisions wishing to solicit donations or to make sales and/or rentals to an open audience on Texas A&M University property are required to obtain a Concessions Permit Form approved by the Department of Student Activities.
If you have the right permissions, you can access this form within the Admin area:
- Click “Events” on the navigation menu on the left panel.
- Click “Concessions” on the submenu.
- Click the “New Permit Request” button.
- Follow the instructions presented. A separate form must be submitted for each location, even if the date(s) and time(s) of the activity match other requests.
When a concessions permit request is submitted, it goes through several stages for full approval. At any point in the review process, the request can be returned for revision. Within your organization’s “Admin” page under Events -> Concessions, you can check the status and location of your Concessions Permit.
Status: Initiated
When a concession permit has been started but not submitted, its status will be listed as “Initiated.” To move the permit forward in the process, open the incomplete form, finish filling it out, and then press “Submit” at the bottom of the page.
Status: Submitted
Once the permit request is submitted, the form will be reviewed by the following areas in this order:
-
- Initial Review – The Student Organization Leadership & Development (SOLAD) team will check to make sure your form has all the correct documentation. If anything is missing, the permit request will be sent back to the initiator with comments. The form must be initially submitted five full business days in advance of the event and any initial revisions must be completed within three full business days of the event.
- Chief Student Leader – The Chief Student Leader must review and acknowledge the concessions permit, even if they were the form’s submitter.
- Advisor – Any of the organization’s advisors can review and acknowledge the concessions permit form. Only the Primary Advisor will receive email notification for this review; however, anyone listed as an organization advisor can access the review by logging in to Get Involved, clicking “Dashboard” in the upper right corner, selecting “Reviews” on the next page, and then clicking the Concessions Link on the following page.
- Building Proctor – The building proctor for the location of the event will need to review and sign off on the permit. Note that building proctors may have specifications for how much advance notice they’ll need in order to sign off on the permit.
- Concessions Administrator – The Concessions Administrator, a member of the SOLAD team, is the final approval on all Concessions Permit Forms. This individual checks to make sure all permissions have been acquired and all appropriate documentation is attached. Forms must reach this phase at least 1 full business day in advance of their events to allow sufficient time for review.
*Once a permit has been approved, it will be emailed to all parties.
Status: Active (approved)
Once approved, the activity is authorized to occur as planned.
Status: Expiring (request was submitted at least 5 months earlier)
Past requests will continue to be viewable for at least one year as a reference in case an organization would like to see what was done the previous year.
