This permit allows you to park in designated dormitory and apartment parking lots on a first come, first serve basis. For off-campus students, there are a limited number of permits available for parking in the lots on West Campus and there are also a limited number of parking permits for one of the parking garages. Parking around the University is close to impossible due to the ordinance allowing only residents to park on the streets for more than two hours. However, there are also approximately 400 spaces available around the campus designated for students only. Cashier's booths are manned from 8 a.m. until 9 p.m. on weekdays.
Metered parking is also available at various locations throughout campus.
These do not require parking permits on campus. For your protection, bicycles may be registered with Campus Security at the Information Center. There is no charge for this service. Bicycles, Surreys, and Roller Skates are available to rent at locations on the Seawall. Galveston's Seawall boasts the longest continuous sidewalk in the world.
