Parking and Transportation
Oakland Campus
Parking on Campus
Campus parking is designated by commuter, residential, guest, and faculty/staff access. All spaces, including reserved residential and administrative stalls, are indicated by signage and/or pavement markings. The Oakland campus also has two electronic vehicle charging stations. Download the Oakland campus map (PDF) for parking lot, accessible parking area, and EV charging station locations.

- Commuter students are required to have a permit for their personal vehicle and may only park in the lots designated for commuters.
- All vehicles without a permit are subject to citation and/or towing after September 15, 2023.
