On-campus location: We are located in the Parking Deck North (also known as the "North Campus Parking Deck"), on the Buchtel Avenue level. The entrance is located on Buchtel Avenue (on the outside of the deck) not far from the bridge.

Park legally while you pick-up your parking permit. Anyone visiting the Parking Office for the purpose of purchasing a permit may park in the gated visitor lot on Buchtel Avenue (directly across from the Parking Office) free of charge for one hour (if you stay longer than this you will be charged for the remainder of your time). If you do this, please bring the ticket that you received from the dispenser to the Parking Office for validation. If the visitor lot is full, then legal parking may be found at a meter. Unfortunately, we cannot reimburse you for money used to feed a meter.
