Thank you for your interest in becoming a vendor at Get on Board Day (GOBD). GOBD is a major involvement tradition held at The University of Alabama each fall and spring. It serves as a springboard for any student who wishes to get more actively engaged with campus by connecting our students to hundreds of organizations, community vendors, and departments housed on the UA campus. Each fall, community vendors and non-profits are given an opportunity to participate in GOBD to enrich the experience for our students and promote your services. Vendor rates are included below.
Please review the vendor guidelines page before purchasing as all sales are final and non-refundable. Please select the desired option below to purchase your table at Get On Board Day and follow the instructions at the link to complete your GOBD registration. No registrations will be considered final until payment has been received.
If you need to make multiple purchases, after completing your first registration, you may do so by selecting “continue shopping.” This selection will route you back to UA Business Services page, where you must select “Student Involvement,” to purchase more options for GOBD.
Registrations after the priority deadline of July 31 for vendors are not guaranteed advertising inclusion and perks. The final deadline is August 5.
Non-profits are eligible to receive a 25% discount on any standard vendor package. Please email uainvolvement@ua.edu for non-profit registration instructions.
Tables provided are 6 feet by 3 feet. Set-up is included in registration fee. Some packages come with tents. You may add an additional tent or request a tent for a package where it is not included for a fee of $150 per tent.
