Room and Study Space Reservations

The IC is opened at a limited capacity for individual, socially distanced study during the Spring 2021 semester due to COVID-19 policies and may temporarily close its entrance once its capacity has been reached.  All available individual study spaces on the 2nd and 3rd floor of the IC, are now reservable, including individual study rooms, armchairs, individual study tables, or computer workstations. Walk-in reservations may be placed at the study space itself or in advance. Non-reservable seats are available on the IC first floor, and additional study space is available at the Damen Student Center. Please see instructions for placing seat reservations and seat reservation policies below.
