Quick Stats

Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The Office of Traffic and Parking sees the students as a source of income. Parking is much more expensive than it should be, and they will not hesitate to write you a ticket or tow your car should you not be in the spot they assigned you. To add insult to injury, they will find a spot for your car in the garage that is geographically farthest away from where your dorm is.

The main thing to remember is that nobody is forcing you to bring a car, and at a school that is as self-contained as Vanderbilt, there is really no need for one. High parking rates are just part of the package if you decide to bring your car to school; there’s no way around it.

Parking Sucks

It's so hard to find parking, I've gotten four tickets this past month! Freshman can't drive, so they either have to park a couple streets over from the commons on 17th or take taxis, borrow cars, and walk.

Typical Parking

Student parking is typical, in a parking garage with a specific spot and the prices are pretty good. There is plenty of parking areas surrounding campus as well so if you are a commuter you won't have a long walk to class.

Need for Car

There is absolutely no need for a car on campus. If you bring a car then you'll have to park pretty far away and won't even use it much.
