You can park in any nearby garage but the above two garages are the nearest.

We have negotiated a rate of $5 for all day Saturday and $3 for all day Sunday.

  1. You will need to take the ticket to the Information desk in the Student Union (near NorthSouth registration desk). You can pay for the parking there and they will give you a new ticket which will have in and out privileges for the day.
  2. Parking payment is handled by the University. You can pay upfront at the student union registration desk to avoid last minute rush. Please make sure to save and use the new ticket provided by the Information Desk if you need to leave the parking lot and come back.
