Pricing Details

• A course number must be provided.
• The course must be for credit and within a course of study that is part of a University undergraduate or graduate degree program offered by a recognized University department.

Tier 2 (50% reduction off Tier 3 fee schedule): The following conditions are met:

• 50% or more of the attendees are members of the Brown Community. This includes full or part-time faculty; full or part-time staff, matriculating students and alumni.
• The event in question must support the focus and purpose of the University.
• There is no fee paid to register or attend the event. Media Services recognizes that student group events and most University department events can be defined as a Tier 2 event and we are happy to provide our services at a 50% reduction off the Tier 3 fee schedule.

Tier 3 (full price):

• Less than 50% of the attendees are affiliated with the University.
• The primary sponsoring organization is not affiliated with the University.
• The event or conference is an annual event with a shifting venue from year-to-year.
• There is a registration fee paid by attendees. Events that fall under Tier 3 pricing are those that, while using University facilities and perhaps being organized by University personnel, are primarily for 'external' consumption or are benefiting the external groups.

Category III Student Groups (No fees incurred):

• SAO-recognized groups are covered by a flat-fee agreement negotiated annually with Media Services. It should be noted that services and/or equipment are not free, but are drawn from a finite pool of money set aside by SAO/UFB to cover media-related expenses incurred by category III groups.
