Pricey and Inconvenient for Freshman
Freshman are required to park off campus, and the permit is $300. You can bring your car on campus during the evenings and weekends, and there is a shuttle that runs between the lot and campus. Otherwise, it's about a 20 min. walk. I wouldn't say that a car is necessary, but campus can sometimes get stifling and it's nice to be able to get away. There are enough regional students that chances are, if you don't have a car, you'll know someone who does. I personally think that the permits and tickets are too expensive; a ticket can easily run $50. There are free off campus spots for commuter students. The on-campus permits for upperclassmen are $500.
