Visitor Parking

Welcome, visitors! Learn about single-day parking permits. For event parking, check with your event organizers. Prospective students and families should get parking information from Admissions. Seventeen visitor spaces are available Monday through Friday in our Visitor Center parking lot at the corner of Roosevelt and Park Streets. If that lot is full you can request a guest parking permit for some of our other lots.

If you’re a prospective student and/or family wishing to schedule a campus visit, please contact the Admissions office. 

Campus Guest/Visitor/Event parking

If you are a visitor to campus, please call the visitor parking center at least 48 hours in advance at 715-836-2544.

Residence Hall Visitors

If you or other family and friends are visiting your student living in the residence halls on weekdays, you must obtain a permit to park. We provide free permits for guests that allow temporary parking in the residence hall (R) stalls. Permits are available at Blugold Central, the Visitor Center (127 Roosevelt Ave.) or the Service Center if outside of our business hours. Permits must be obtained by the visitor and they must provide a picture ID and their license plate information.

For weekend visits (beginning Friday at 3 p.m. through Monday at 6 a.m.), you do not need a permit to park in the residence hall (R) stalls.

Short-term visitor parking is available in the parking meters located within close proximity to the residence halls. Pay careful attention to the posted enforcement hours and be sure to pay the meter when required.
