Usage Restriction: Claremont Graduate University (CGU) welcomes filming opportunities that align with the university’s operational needs and academic priorities. As a higher education institution, CGU’s primary function is to serve its students, faculty, and staff, which means that filming activities must be planned with consideration for the academic calendar and scheduled university events. Filming is generally most flexible during: Academic Breaks – Summer (mid-May through mid-August), Winter Break (mid-December through early January), and Spring Break (March). Weekends – Limited availability depending on campus activities. Evenings/Night Shoots – Subject to approval, with consideration for noise and access restrictions. During the academic year, CGU remains committed to supporting filming requests and will make every effort to accommodate productions with minimal disruption to daily operations. Filming activities taking place during class sessions and university events will be subject to scheduling constraints and require prior coordination to ensure academic continuity. Restrictions and Considerations: Filming in classroom spaces, administrative offices, and high-traffic areas must be scheduled outside of peak hours or during designated break periods. Parking and facility access will be coordinated in advance to avoid conflicts with student and faculty needs. Noise levels, lighting setups, and equipment placement should comply with campus policies to maintain an appropriate academic environment. A location agreement, insurance requirements, and applicable fees will be outlined prior to approval. Our facilities team is committed to working collaboratively with production crews to ensure a seamless experience while preserving the integrity of our academic mission.
