If you will be parking on campus during the school year, a valid parking permit is required. The cost for the academic year is $185 and is charged to your student account in the fall. Parking permit sales begin mid-July. Permits are available ONLY at the Parking and Transportation Services website. You will get your parking pass during check-in on move-in day.

If you purchase your permit by August 19, your permit will be given to you when you check in to your room.

If your assignment is in a triple/quad room, you will see it listed in your Housing Portal. A triple/quad room is much larger than double room, and easily accommodates three or four people. Generally, there are only three people placed in one of these spaces. If we are in an overflow situation (not enough regular rooms for all students needing housing) then an additional student will be added temporarily, until a permanent room is available for that student.

Each residence hall has a specific bed type and lofting options. You can view the specific type of bed in your room on our Beds, Lofts, and Linens page.
