York University Student Centre (YUSC) has a limited number of office spaces available for student clubs and organizations officially recognized by the office of Student Community and Leadership Development (SC&LD) and/or York Federation of Students (YFS). There are more student clubs and organizations than available office spaces. Since office space is in high demand, it is being allocated annually. All clubs/organizations interested in obtaining an office must fill out an Office Application Form. Clubs/organizations that currently have an office in the YUSC building – for the exception of student services – must reapply each year.

Office allocations are determined by Allocation Committee comprised of the YUSC Chairperson, YUSC Executive Director, YUSC Executive Officer, YUSC Clubs and Services Representative and YFS President or YFS VP Equity and Services.

Criteria

Office space in the Student Centre is allocated based on the following criteria:

• Recognition by the office of Student Community & Leadership Development (SC&LD) and/or York Federation of Students (YFS)
• Club activity adherence to the YUSC, SC&LD, other York University policies, and applicable civil regulations
• Services provided to York University community and external community
• Regular use of office (if applicable)
• Accessibility needs for members with disabilities
• Size of membership
• Any extenuating circumstances that where specified on the application form for the committee to consider. Please note: membership size, activity or intended use of space does not qualify as extenuating circumstance.
• Other such criteria as determined by YUSC

To ensure that applications are reviewed in an objective and fair manner they are evaluated primarily on a matrix system which weights events quantitatively to develop quantitative comparators. Other qualitative information are used as a secondary consideration only.
