Arrival & Parking

Designated accessible parking spaces are available on a first-come, first served basis in the Southwest Quad Garage. Individuals who utilize designated accessible parking spaces must display a state-issued disability license plate or placard. To maximize the availability of accessible parking spaces in the garage, if possible, please consider utilizing the bus turnaround area outside of McDonough Arena. (Buses will be redirected to Cooper Field for the day.)

The front gates of the University, at the intersection of 37th and O Streets, is an accessible drop-off location. Please be advised that neighborhood traffic may be heavy.
