Regarding parking, the size of Eagle Commuter Lot 40 has now quadrupled while Resident Reserved Lot 32 has doubled! Use UNT’s interactive parking map to make sure you’re parking in the lot that’s right for your permit. Still need a parking permit? Find out which is right for you and purchase yours before the semester starts.
- Students are not permitted to bring micro-mobility vehicles inside UNT buildings. There are plenty of bike racks available around campus, and the UNT Police offer free U-locks to help keep your vehicle secure.
-
If you ride a bicycle to get around campus, the Bike Shop between the General Academic Building and Sycamore Hall can help with bike repairs between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday every week.
