Facilities Management
Facilities Management is responsible for maintaining the buildings, grounds, roads, sidewalks and athletic fields within Iona University’s 40+ acre New Rochelle campus. This includes 13 main buildings consisting of administrative offices, meeting spaces, classrooms and residential halls, as well as 35 houses and smaller buildings surrounding the main property (totaling over one million square feet of space).
Additionally, we handle the event setup needs of the campus through 25Live.
The Facilities office is open 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., Monday - Friday, and can be reached at (914) 633-2454.
Staff is in place 24/7 for emergencies and continuous support. If you have an emergency outside of the office hours, please call Campus Safety at (914) 633-2560.
Submitting a Work Order
- Students may place a work order directly to Facilities. For any dorm related requests it is recommended students also contact Residential Life (or the RA on duty if after hours).
- All Faculty and Staff should use the online work order form for any non-emergency issues.
- Facilities reviews each work order and schedules repair work based on priorities and the current amount of work volume.
