Best Places to Find a Spot The campus has specific zones for freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors to park. This takes a lot of the choice out of finding a spot.
Good Luck Getting a Spot Here It's nearly impossible to find a spot on East Quad near your residence hall. So many juniors have cars that they often end up parking far from their buildings, and often end up behind East, the freshman dorm.

Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Parking is a bit of a problem on campus. It isn’t that there aren’t enough parking spaces, but parking spaces can be inconveniently located. Getting a parking permit at Denison is easy; it’s just a matter of paying the money to register your car. And unlike a lot of college campuses, freshmen are allowed to have a car on campus. So, incoming freshmen can consider themselves lucky that they can have a car on campus, but they shouldn’t get too excited, because there is a catch.

Once you have a car on campus, you have to park it. It’s not really very difficult to park at Denison, but it can be inconvenient at times. As a freshman, you will only be able to park down the hill by the far end of North Quad. As you progress through the years, parking gets easier and closer to the buildings in which you’ll live. There are a few places where it is difficult to find a spot, such as behind Curtis East, but the campus has built several new parking lots in the past few years beginning in 2001, and so are attempting to accomodate students and their vehicles.

Easy Parking

Parking is not that big of a deal on campus except for parent weekends. You are suppose to buy a parking pass, but a lot of people don't and never get in trouble. Not having a car on campus isn't a big deal either.

Okay...

Good Price, and freshman are allowed to have cars, but cannot park anywhere near their dorms. Everyone knows someone with a car, so if you have to go somewhere, you can find someone.
