Contracts and Legal Agreements
Students are not permitted to sign any contracts or legal agreements. This includes but is not limited to:
- Event space or vendor contracts
- Non-disclosure agreements (NDAs)
- Consulting agreements (even for pro bono work)
- Quotes from PO vendors that require a signature
Signature requests for PO quotes should be sent to ug-finance@wharton.upenn.edu.
All other contracts and agreements (including for pro bono consulting work) must be sent to Isabelle Glass, Associate Director, at isaglass@wharton.upenn.edu. for review and appropriate signature with at least 10 business days notice.
Independent Contractors
Students are not allowed to hire or sign contracts with any independent contractors (performers, artists, etc.). Independent contractors must first be vetted by the Undergraduate Division and Penn Procurement. Once approved, the contractor can be hired and scheduled.
To hire an independent contractor for an event, submit the name, phone number, and email address of the potential contractor to ug-finance@wharton.upenn.edu as soon as possible. The approval process often takes up to 4 weeks. Do not hire or schedule the contractor until you have received approval.
