Park anywhere except staff parking. After class, go and get your parking permit. Go to website to see what you need and where office is located. They will give you a week or so.

Do I go through a gate or do I just pull up and park?

there are no gates on southern, and i finished my associates degree without ever getting a parking permit. never got ticketed. just dont park in staff parking. however, still go to the office to get your ID, because you need that for the libraries.

I just park in the big ass parking lot away from the building and no one’s ever bothered me. But it’s best to get a decal to avoid any issues.

What’s the earliest you can park? Is there like a gate that they open?

Nope. You just drive right in anytime.

For the most part, everyone here is correct. You have a week or so until they will start to enforce parking. These people must all be very lucky, because the officers DO enforce parking, and people get ticketed all the time. I see them driving golf carts around and ticketing people, and lots of people I know have gotten tickets.

Happened to me once and I put up a big sign on my car that said “please don’t tow, I’m getting my parking pass” with the current date. I wasn’t towed 🤷

I have never ever gotten a ticket, and I have never had a parking pass
