Parking & Transportation Services

Visitors are welcome year round for campus visits, special events, orientation tours, commencement and more. Parking Services can assist in providing a required parking pass for visitors in order to park appropriately on campus.

• A visitor pass is required to park in designated "Visitor" spaces.
• Passes are typically valid for one day and do not permit parking in other areas not designated for visitors
  • reserved, restricted, bus-only, red-lined spaces, or fire lanes. 
• For large groups or events, university departments should contact Parking Services at least two business days in advance.
• Parking space assignments are enforced during business hours, unless otherwise marked
  • Spaces marked "24-Hour F/S" are reserved for faculty and staff at all times.

Register for a Visitor Pass
