Parking Permits

Those who are interested in parking a vehicle on campus must register at Student Administrative Services. For long-term parking, students must purchase permits from Student Administrative Services. The school will then give students or visitors a current parking permit that must be displayed on their vehicle at all times. Also, students who need handicapped parking permits must be certified by their home state’s vehicle licensing authority. Students who are injured may receive a convenience permit for 30 days if they have a letter from a physician.

College Prowler Take

Parking on campus is generally more hassle than it’s worth. To start, the permit is pretty expensive for a college student’s budget, even if it is out of Mommy and Daddy’s wallet. Most students could come up with a better way to spend that money. For freshmen, the privilege of parking is just a dream, and they have to spend their first two semesters walking, taking a bus, or begging a ride from an upperclassman.

Students have different opinions about the convenience of finding a spot. Some must have better luck than others since they say there’s always a spot if you look hard enough. Others think it’s downright impossible. Bottom line is that parking isn’t easy. Like most campuses, Loyola underestimates the number of parking spaces needed, and students are left to deal with it, fighting for a spot as they’re running late to class.

If you don’t have a parking pass, parking is virtually impossible. You definitely have to fight for a spot like crazy. It’s also dangerous because some cars get broken into if they are parked on side streets. If you do have a parking pass, it’s much easier, although if you get stuck parking at the fitness center, it can be a pain. You have to go all the way up there to get it, but it’s worth the safety.

Parking sucks and costs so much. If you bring a car, the smaller the better. Don’t bring a truck like me.

Parking is limited on campus. Students may have a car on campus beginning their sophomore year. The best option is to park at the Cathedral lot and utilize the shuttle service.

Parking is horrible; there is nowhere to park, and it’s so expensive. Freshmen can’t have cars, but some do anyway.
