Park in a UB Lot

Student Parking

At UB, all students are allowed to have a car on campus — including first-year students in residence halls.

First-Year Students Who Live On Campus

If you are a first-year student living on campus and bringing your vehicle, you must register for a virtual parking permit. You must also be parked in your residence hall lot or a Park and Ride lot Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Use the campus buses and shuttles to get to class and travel between campuses.

Park in the student-designated lots adjacent to your residence hall. Residents of the Governors Complex should use the Governors E Lot. You may move your car to a Park and Ride Lot on campus, such as the Center for Tomorrow, Arena, Alumni B & C or Stadium lots on the North Campus, and the Main-Bailey or Parker lots on the South Campus during the restricted time.

Other Resident Students

If you are not a first-year student, but living on campus, you can park in any student designated parking lot Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., with the exception of the commuter lots, Jarvis A and Hochstetter B on the North Campus. 

Residents of university-owned apartment villages must register their vehicle for a virtual permit. The virtual permit allows parking in the complex where the vehicle registrant resides. Virtual permits from one complex are not valid in another. With the exception of the commuter lots, these virtual permits are also valid in student-designated lots.

Commuter Students

If you live off campus you may park in any student designated lot, including the commuter lots, Jarvis A and Hochstetter B, on the North Campus.

Apply for a Virtual Parking Permit

Students should apply for virtual parking permission through the E-Business Center.
