Exciting news! Georgia State University is rolling out a new, streamlined reservation system that will simplify the process of booking event spaces, classrooms, and other resources across all our campuses.
What's Changing?
Starting on May 12, students, faculty, and staff will be able to use a single platform to check availability and make reservations requests using their university credentials. Ad Astra and EMS will no longer be used.

This innovative system is already in use at many universities nationwide, helping to organize requests, scheduling, communication, billing, and logistics for campus events. Georgia State will implement this platform across all campuses, covering all requestable spaces.

- Centralized Access: One-stop webpage for all reservation needs such as requests, scheduling, communication, billing, and logistics.
- Up-to-Date Reports: Real-time updates on classes and events, crucial for emergency situations and unexpected closures.
