Visitor and Short-Term Parking
Commuter Services offers several parking options to accommodate visitors, students, faculty and staff members who will park on campus for a few hours a day or a few days a week. Parking Regulations are enforced Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., and during special events as posted. Fire lanes and ADA areas are enforced 24/7.
SHORT-TERM PARKING for part-time telecommuters
In response to the increase of students, faculty and staff telecommuting part-time during the semester, Commuter Services is offering a variety of alternatives to long-term parking permits. We encourage individuals who will be telecommuting part-time to consider several factors when deciding whether to purchase a long-term parking permit; how often will the individual be on campus, will they be on campus all day or just a few hours, and where on campus do they want to park. The following options are available to all faculty, staff, or students who determine a long-term parking permit is not needed this academic year.
