The time of day you arrive on campus has a big impact on where you will find parking. It may not be as close to your destination as you would prefer. Commuter parking locations closest to the academic core (43rd & Elkhorn and Constant Center 45th St.) always fill up before Constant Center 43rd St. Garage and Lot 1.
We have found that 10am-2pm is the highest demand time for parking. Other commuter locations such as Lots 11, 16, and 47 may have spaces. During certain times, it may be necessary to park in one of the Perimeter Lots (Lot 42 and 43) and either walk to class or catch Monarch Transit at the closest stop.
See Campus Parking Map for garage and lot locations, and visit Commuter Parking for more information.
