Helpful hints from our friends at Parking & Transportation:
  • G10, G16, White Ave Garage, and 11th St. Garage fill up VERY fast.
  • If you are arriving to campus later than 9AM - C22, C7, C15, C28 are all options you might want to try.
  • Lake Ave Garage and G10 usually have commuter spaces on the lowest levels.
