You will need a parking permit to park on campus. You can obtain a permit from The Security
and Safety Office (Former McKeldin Gym) or in Robinson Hall (301) 860-4040. Your parking tag
must be displayed whenever you are on campus and you must park only in designated parking
areas according to your student status or you will be fined if you do not have a parking permit.
