Parking
A parking permit is required for on-campus parking by students, faculty and staff. Students should go to the Student Payment Office to purchase a permit. Please note: A parking permit does not guarantee space in College lots. All parking rules are strictly enforced and the Campus Police Officers maintain the right to ticket, or tow if necessary, any vehicles that are not in compliance or impede public safety.

Parking for those with physical challenges and designated H or V plates is available in Lot 4 by the main entrance. Limited one hour visitor parking is also available in this lot. Long-term visitors should obtain a temporary permit from their host department and/or campus police.
