    Visitor Parking
    A visitor parking area with parking meters is located next to the administration building on College Oak Drive. See map. (No student parking is permitted in the visitors area) Visitor permits are available from the Information Center in the Administration Building, or from the College Police office, located south of Davies Hall. 

    Parking Permits
    All vehicles on campus 7:00 a.m. - 11:00 p.m. must display a semester permit or daily parking permit. Permits are not required during non-school days and weekends. For your protection, all vehicles should be locked and all valuables stored out of sight.  Permits are $30 a semester for four-wheel vehicles and $15 for motorcycles, payable at the business services counter in the administration building. The business services counter is open from 7:30 a.m.-8:00 p.m. Monday-Thursday, and 7:30 a.m.-5:00 p.m. Friday. (You may also use the fee-payment coupon available online. However, this is a mail-in coupon, and if you need a permit immediately, purchasing it on campus is the best option.)

    Handicapped Parking
    Automobiles of students with disabilities (and persons providing transportation services to students with disabilities) must display a semester or daily parking permit as do other students. However, special parking spaces for disabled students are provided in all student parking lots. A placard, issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles for persons with disabilities, must be properly displayed on the vehicle. Temporary disability permits are available from the student health center. If you are issued a temporary permit you must also display a valid semester or daily parking permit 

    Motorcycle Parking
    Motorcycle permits are $15 per semester. Motorcycles may only park in designated motorcycle areas. Motorcycles may NOT park in regular student spaces. 

    Tow-Away
    Vehicles parked illegally in red zones or parked so as to impede the flow of traffic on campus streets, lot entrances and driveways, in front of fire hydrants, or in other areas where emergency vehicles might be hindered, may be subject to being towed away at owner's expense and inconvenience. Vehicles parked in staff or handicapped spaces are subject to towing.
