Access to Campus Buildings and Facilities

Access to campus buildings and facilities, other than residence halls, is coordinated through the Park N' Pony office.

To get your key, you must submit a Key Request Form. The Key Request Form must have the authorization of the department director or designated building manager. The Park N' Pony Office will contact you once your key has been made and is ready for pick up. You must pick up your key in person and sign for it. You will need your SMU ID or a valid photo form of identification..

 *All key requests or lock replacements must come in on the proper request form.  Please use the link provided in the chart for your convenience.  To keep the system streamlined requests via other avenues will be returned to the originator unfulfilled.

*Only one key will be cut with any lock change request.  If you need more than one key you will need to use the link for Additional Keys to submit your request.

*A Building Manager or Department Director’s approval is required to process a key request.  If the request is for either a sub-master or master key a Dean or Associate Vice President’s approval will be required.

*When the requested key(s) are available the person being issued the key(s) will be contacted.  Only that person may pick up the key(s) and will be required to sign a release for them.

*Only one (1) key will be issued for any area to a person.  There will be no multiple keys issued.  The key must be checked out to the person that will be holding the key.

The last two items in the chart could be considered fines rather than fees but are necessary requirements falling under the “deterrent to waste” category of our goals.  As long as keys are returned or picked up as they should be, these fines remain simply a deterrent and become a non-factor.
