There are designated commuter lots for off-campus students who drive to campus.

Getting a Parking Permit
It's very simple to get a parking permit. A student can go to the Warwick Center on campus and visit Parking Services to get a permit. Or, via My Seaport, students can sign up for a pass online and then pick it up in Warwick. License plate number, vehicle make, and insurance information are required at registration. Billing for the purchase of a permit goes to the student's UNCW account, so a student doesn't have to pay right then at registration.
