Parking

The most convenient parking facility is the Student Center Parking Structure (SCPS) located next to the Conference Venue on Pereira Drive (see map below).

Parking on campus requires a valid parking permit. One day permit costs $10 and can be bought from the parking attendant in kiosk in front of the parking structure. Parking attendants will be there on Monday between 8am and 9am and on other days (Tue-Sat) between 8:10am and 9:10am. In case there is no parking attendant, there is also a machine located in the parking structure where one can purchase a daily ticket. Please note that with a $10 daily ticket, one can only park in spaces that are NOT marked “AR Reserved”.

The cheaper and more convenient option might be to buy a one week permit for $56. It can be bought at the Transportation and Distribution Services Office (Parking Office) which is located at the intersection of East Peltason and Pereira (see map below).
