General
- Off-campus trips organized by the Student Activities Board (SAB) are open to matriculated Seton Hall undergraduate students only. Tickets for off-campus trips are not available for purchase by faculty, staff, or alumni.
- All ticket sales are completed online at http://SetonHallSAB.eventbrite.com.
- There is a one (1) ticket per student limit. If a student obtains two (2) or more tickets to a SAB sponsored event he/she will forfeit the additional ticket(s).
- Ticket availability is not guaranteed. If a Student Activities Board trip/event sells out, students have the option to add themselves to the wait list. If a ticket becomes available, SAB advisors will reach out to the first person on the wait list (and continue down the list as tickets become available). When a ticket becomes available, the student will receive an e-mail to claim the ticket and enter payment information. Students are given a limited amount of time (6 hours) to claim the ticket. If he/she fails to claim the ticket within the 6-hour timeframe, he/she forfeits his/her spot to the next student on the waitlist.
- A student is required to provide his/her Eventbrite ticket voucher and SHU ID to receive his/her ticket.
- A majority of off-campus trips will provide bus transportation with the exception of events located in New York City. For off-campus trips organized to New York City, students have the option to purchase train tickets through the Office of Student Activities.
- Students must abide by the Student Code of Conduct and any other local, state, and federal policies at all times.
- There will be no refunds for lost, unwanted, or unused tickets. Refunds will only be made if the Office of Student Activities or Seton Hall University cancels the event.
- Although all sales are final, a student who is no longer available to attend a Student Activities Board sponsored trip may exchange his/her ticket with another student. Both students must notify the SAB advisors of the exchange by e-mailing studentactivities@shu.edu.
- SAB tickets are NOT for resale. Any student found to have resold a SAB ticket will be subject to sanctions according to the Student Code of Conduct.
- The Student Activities Board offers two types of off-campus trips: trips that provide bus transportation and trips that require advance ticket pick-up.
Off-campus trips with provided bus transportation
- A student is required to provide his/her Eventbrite ticket voucher and SHU ID during check-in at all off-campus trips.
- A student must complete the “Seton Hall University Trip Waiver Form” prior to getting onto the bus. If the excursion/venue requires physical tickets to gain entrance, students will receive his/her ticket once seated on the bus.
- Students are responsible for reading the event details shared on the Eventbrite page. This page includes departure information and details about the event/ticket package.
- All trips will depart from the WSOU side of Richie Reagan Recreation Center unless otherwise stated. Students should arrive 15 minutes prior to departure time.
- Students must use transportation provided by the Office of Student Activities to the event. If a student does not use the provided transportation to the event, he/she forfeits his/her ticket.
- If a student decides to separate and not return with the group back to campus, he/she recognizes that the University is not responsible for his/her return transportation.
- Standby tickets may be available the day of the event. Students may show up at bus check-in for a standby number. After all ticket holders are checked-in, it is first to come, first served from the standby line. Students on standby line must join the Eventbrite waitlist in order to purchase the standby ticket, should it become available.
Off-campus trips that require advance ticket pick up
- A student is required to provide his/her Eventbrite ticket voucher and SHU ID when picking up a ticket for an off-campus trip.
- A student completes the “Seton Hall University Trip Waiver Form” prior to receiving his/her ticket.
- If a student fails to pick up his/her ticket during the dates listed on the Eventbrite page, he/she forfeits his/her ticket to a student on the waitlist.
- A student is responsible for reading the event details shared on the Eventbrite page. This page will inform the student of the dates/times to pick up his/her tickets for the event and details about the event/ticket package.
- Transportation is not included in the purchase of an event ticket. A student has the option to purchase round trip NJ Transit tickets from the Office of Student Activities. Round trip tickets will be available to a student on the Eventbrite page for an additional cost. In order to purchase round trip NJ Transit tickets, he/she must have purchased a ticket to the show.
Bus Transportation
