Parking

Parking is free with a parking pass from your department or the Office of Graduate Studies.
  • The pass enables you to park in campus lots designated A or C. See parking maps for City Campus and East Campus.
  • Hang your pass from your rearview mirror.
  • Arrange your visit in advance and your parking pass can be mailed to you.
  • Arrange your visit later and you'll need to pick up your pass on the day of your visit. If picking up a parking permit from Graduate Studies, follow 17th Street to Vine. Turn left on Vine and then left on 16th Street. Turn right on U Street and park momentarily along U Street.
For shorter appointments, you may prefer to park in one of the metered areas surrounding campus.
  • Several metered spaces are available along 16th Street and S Street.
  • Be sure to find a meter which will allow enough time for your appointment and to bring coins to plug your meter. Various UNL meters and city meters may allow different amounts of time (typically 10 to 90 minutes) and accept different payments (some accept quarters and dimes but not nickels, some allow payment by cell phone).
