Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Parking on campus can be a challenge, but a minor one. While a car is not at all necessary—or even practical—to get around the small campus, most students find it valuable to bring their own car, as it makes getting around and out of town significantly easier. At the same time, while having a car is recommended, you can get by without one, as many students have them on campus and you’re bound to be friends with someone who does. If you have a car, from day one you’re allowed to bring it, there are no restrictions in that regard. As a result, parking can seem limited, but it’s much easier to find a spot on campus or around Huntingdon than it is in a city or a more developed area as long as you’re occasionally willing to walk. And aside from the price of gas, parking really is the only hassle. Students often complain about it, and it’s often harder than some would like to find a spot near their dorms, unless they live by South Hall or don’t mind a quick walk.

As long as you’re not in a hurry, parking will most likely be a minor nuisance, rather than a major inconvenience. It’s easier to find parking off campus, but the streets are cleaned once a week and you will be fined if you don’t move your car. Parking regulations are strictly enforced, but if you watch out for them, a $25 pass to park on campus will be your biggest expense for the year.

Decent amount of spots

There are not that many students at the school. In return, there is only a decent amount of parking spots. But again, there is not a huge demand for parking spots on campus. If you sign up for a parking spot in the beginning of the year, a student will definitely get a parking pass. Parking passes cost only $35 for a whole year as well. A pretty good price for parking if you ask me.

Cheap

Its about 30 bucks for a parking pass.. and like 10 dollars for a ticket.. I never bought passes because i only got about a ticket a year. You don't need a car on campus, because its easy to get around.. if you want to go somewhere else though, you'll probably want a car-- not really any taxis or buses around.

Convenient

There hasn't really been a problem for many students in finding a parking space in close proximity to their dorm, or their desired destination. The parking permits have a reasonable price. All students are permitted to bring a car to campus, although there is a designated parking lot for freshmen. The other lots are often used by freshmen as well, though. As for the need to have a car, there really isn't one. Everything on campus is within walking distance, the most time needed to travel from one end of campus to another is 5-8 minutes.
