Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Like everything else, the best thing about parking is that it
is free. Now, on the downside, the only permanent parking
for cadet vehicles is a 15- to 20-minute walk from the barracks. On some weekends, however, cadets are authorized to park their vehicles in parking lots closer to the barracks. Parking can get crowded during major events, such as football games and family weekends. But what school doesn’t have that problem?

Overall, most cadets agree that the parking on post is adequate. Just like everything else, you have to be flexible. The problem that most cadets run into is when, either because of apathy or laziness, they forget to move their car from one place to another. Sometimes cadets can’t get a spot exactly where they want, but usually parking is pretty amicable. After all, West Point is not the largest campus in the world; there’s only so far you could possibly walk. It’s not like you’re going to have to walk three miles to an academic building if you don’t get the best parking spot.

Distant Parking

You can park around dorms weekends only. Cadets have a parking lot, but it is not close.

All cadets are required to register their cars and get decals for them. With a bright yellow decal on the bumper, everyone can spot a cadet vehicle a mile away. It’s like having one of those bumpers stickers that ask ‘How’s my driving? Call the staff duty officer so that he can let my boss know.’
