Parking for visits and View Point Days is arranged through the Admissions Office. Orientation parking is arranged through the New Student Office.

When visiting campus, please see the visitors' information page.

Parents and students - please note that parking at UWSP is limited. Unless the student needs a vehicle for an off-campus job, they might want to consider leaving it at home. Space for parking on campus is limited and restricted, there is a charge involved. The University assumes no responsibility for damage to a vehicle or its contents while parked on campus. Parking on the UWSP campus is by permit only except in metered areas with proper payment. The cost of a permit for an entire year is $94.35 (includes all applicable tax). There are 5 student parking lots on campus.

Assignments are made on a first-come, first-served basis. If you decide to bring a vehicle to campus, be sure to read the parking regulations. Following the rules and reading the posted street signs will make for a positive experience.

Permit applications for enrolled students are accepted in early May for the following school year. No applications will be accepted prior to that date and will be returned if sent through the mail. New students starting in September will attend Orientation, enroll in classes and receive login information prior to applying for a permit.

A permit reported as lost or stolen that later shows up on a vehicle will receive a $100.00 citation.

City streets that are within the boundaries of the University are under the jurisdiction of the Stevens Point Police Department. Citations issued by that agency must be resolved with the city. University parking regulations (specifically loading zone rules) DO NOT apply on city streets.

Visitors must be registered with the Parking Services office. If you have a friend or family member visiting, be sure to bring them to Parking Services office for a permit (if space is available).
