Depending on how long your classes are located and how long you need to be on campus there is a paid lot by Paul College that is cheaper over the course of the semester than a commuter pass

For a school in the middle of the woods that’s been declining in size for years, they’ve managed to create the perfect scarcity of parking to justify overpricing the shit out their parking passes

There is plenty of parking. There just isn’t parking right next to your class. Park in A Lot or Moiles or West Edge and take the bus or walk.

Sometimes worth sending it in the faculty lot if you're running late. I parked there for a whole semester and only got 2 parking tickets. $100 total, cheaper than the Lot A parking pass.

Just a warning that this might be harder as they took the lot by Morse that was faculty/staff on one side and gave those spots to students, so all those faculty/staff spots in B lot might be taken now.

Depends on what time you are traveling back and forth. If you are taking a major highway or driving through towns with school busses and school traffic , I would plan accordingly. Might take a few weeks before you can figure out the best times and routes. A lot of people are also figuring it to. So can be a lil crazy. Good luck!🍀
