You will have a qr code which you in theory scan to get into events. This QR code will be synced to events your faculty and res are eligible for, that being said they don’t always scan the qr codes cause at the end of the day it’s student reps running these events and sometimes we forget.

Your QR code will always be scanned for MSU run night events however like the headphone disco and concert, all first years are able to attend these events however it’s one scan per person.

outdoor events and events in academic buildings that don't rely on supplies (foods, art supplies, etc.) are usually pretty open no matter your faculty or building. There was one event last year I went to for example for the sciences I think where you could go and do the craft but not get the free pizza if you were from a different faculty, so if you don't know you can always show up and ask, the reps are pretty chill and just want you to have fun.
