FAQ's
What do I do if I am involved in an accident in the student lot?
If there are no injuries the state patrol will not arrive. Just exchange information with each other and notify your parents.
What do I do if I receive a ticket?
Every vehicle must have a parking permit hang tag in it. If you do not you will be ticketed. Bring it to us with your hang tag within one week and we will tear the ticket up. If you wait longer than one week, the ticket will stand and you will have to pay for it. Any ticket can be reviewed, but if you fail to bring your case to our attention we can not work with you.
Can I park in the visitor lot for one hour?
Students are not allowed to park in the visitor lot or faculty lot until after 3 p.m.
What can I do when I lock my keys in my car?
The campus supervisors have the ability to retrieve your keys. All we ask is you fill out a release waiver.
