Welcome to the new Venue Contract Review/Creation wizard:

This form is intended for club officers to use, to request creation or review of a contract between the University at Buffalo Student Association Inc. ("SA") and any venue that your club may wish to use. Do not use this form if you will be purchasing food from the vendor - use SA's Catering Contract form instead.

Please fill out this form to submit a contract for review or request SA generate a new contract. Note that this process generally take about 2-3 weeks depending on what the contract is for and other factors.
