You can pay for visitor parking through the Parkmobile app in many visitor parking zones.

HOW TO PAY 

PAY STATIONS

Pay stations accept:

  • Cash, using $20 bills or smaller. Machines do not issue
    change.
  • Credit/debit card
  • Validation/pin codes 

You can also pay with the Parkmobile app in pay station
areas.

If you only need to park for 15 minutes or less at a pay
station, you may park for free! You still must visit the pay
station to enter your space number, but you will not be
charged for your transaction.

 

Using the Pay Station
  1. Park in any space in any pay station controlled area; signs will indicate such areas on campus.
  2. Look for your space number. This number will either be marked on the ground or on a metal plate on the wall in front of you. Make a note of the number; you will need to enter it at the station.
  3. Locate closest pay station.
  4. Press [OK] button to start.
  5. Select payment method (either cash/card or validation pin code).
  6. Enter your space number.
  7. Enter the amount of time.
  8. Insert payment (either cash/card or validation pin code).
  9. Take receipt.
 
CREDIT CARD METERS

Credit card meters do no accept cash. Meter durations vary
throughout campus and maximum hours (30 minutes, 2
hours, all day, etc.) are printed on each meter. 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FOR GUESTS WITH DISABILITIES

Visitors and vehicles displaying state-issued disabled parking identification may park in designated visitor spaces including those that are ADA accessible. Parking in campus lots that begin with a letter or number during restricted hours is not permitted. This includes accessible spaces. 

VISITOR SPACE PAYMENT

At individual metered spaces: Guests with disabilities may park at individual metered spaces for twice the amount of time listed on the meter OR four hours, whichever is shorter, and do NOT need to pay for parking during that time.

At pay station spaces: Guests with disabilities may park at any visitor pay station space, including spaces that are marked as ADA accessible. Parking payment is required. 

ADDITIONAL NEEDS

If you are coming to campus for a special event and the existing visitor parking does not meet your needs, please contact the event coordinator to determine if additional arrangements have been made for disabled access.
