If you plan to use more than one vehicle to drive and leave in the lot while you鈥檙e in class, you will need to put the one parking pass you buy in whichever car you鈥檙e using for the day.

It costs $5 to exit this lot and there is no expiry time for the day.
To park your bike, find any bike rack on campus, and be sure to lock it up so you can continue to use it for years to come.
