Busy

Welcome! You’ve found the go-to hub for all things student groups

Here, you’ll find everything you need to bring your ideas to life — from guidance on event planning and safety requirements to valuable tools and resources designed to help you host successful, engaging events. When you’re ready to get started, simply log into the portal to submit your event for review. We’re here to support you whenever you need it.

What you need to know

  • Access the portal. Log in with your McMaster club email and password. Personal McMaster email accounts or non-McMaster emails will not be accepted.
  • We have included easy-access links for event code verification and space bookings through Conference & Event Services and MUSC.
  • All waivers and templates are available on the Resources page of this website. You are responsible for keeping copies of the completed waivers for each event.
  • The portal consists of three levels of approval:
    • Level 1 — Intermediate Approver (e.g., MSU, GSA, Faculty representative)
    • Level 2 — University Health and Safety
    • Level 3 — Enterprise Risk (if using third-party vendors and a certificate of insurance is required)
