Evening Parking for Students
Students who only need evening parking can save money by purchasing an evening permit instead of paying meters or paying the hourly rate at visitor lots. Evening permits are available at Parking & Transportation Services. Students who don't want to purchase an evening permit may pay an hourly rate at Parking Structure #5 or use a 45-minute or 3-hour meter located throughout campus.
Additionally, the Visitor Lot next to the W.T. Young Libary may be used when going to the library. Students with a valid C, R, or K permit do not need to purchase an additional evening permit.
