Designated Move In/Out Days

  • Move In
    • During designated move in days at the beginning of each semester, temporary two-hour loading and unloading parking is established in close proximity to the residence halls so that students may transfer their belongings between their vehicle and hall with minimal inconvenience. To expedite the process, and to allow access to the maximum number of customers, vehicles left beyond the two-hour time limit may be subject to a fine. After the two-hour time limit, we ask that students and parents move their vehicle(s) to any parking lot not located off of Residence Drive. Holly Street parking and lots T and V1 will be available.
    • Parking permits are required first day of classes.
    • More information about Move In is available on the Welcome Weekend Web page.
  • Move Out
    • Beginning at noon on Wednesday during the last week of the semester (finals week), resident students are allowed to park in any commuter lot for the purpose of loading their vehicles. Standard rules apply to metered, reserved, and handicapped spaces.

Overnight Guests

Passes may be obtained using a pay station located in Lot V (SERC). Visitors using the pay station should enter their license plate and park in lots T or V during the day and lots V1 or X overnight. Two-day permits are available at a pay station. If further assistance is needed, please contact University Police in Lathrop Hall. Day passes are available for $5 at the Conrad Welcome Center.
