Students who drive may either park on the main campus, or use the free shuttle parking lots at the Olympic Shuttle Lot, Bundy Campus, Airport Arts Campus, AET or the Madison Music Campus. Planning where you park is important because street parking in the surrounding neighborhood is restricted on weekdays and on Monday through Thursday evenings. Campus parking permits are not valid on these restricted streets.
Student parking permits for the Main Campus cost $75 per semester. Permits are sold in-person at the Bursar's Office or online. If you have purchased a parking decal for the SMC Main Campus, this decal may be used for parking at any of the satellite and shuttle transit parking areas as well. Satellite and Shuttle Transit Parking Decals are free, but may not be used for parking on the SMC Main Campus. Free Shuttle Transit Parking Decals are available at any of the satellite parking locations. Students with disabilities should contact the Center for Students with Disabilities regarding on-campus parking. A limited number of spaces are available in Lot 5 (on Pearl Street west of 20th Street) for a daily fee of $5.
An important caution: Because car alarms are disruptive to other students and our neighbors, cars in the parking structure with activated alarms will be cited/towed immediately at vehicle owner’s expense.
Parking is enforced at all times. A valid permit is required for on-campus parking. If you received a Parking Citation and wish to contest it, the administrative review form is available at the College Police Office, 1718 Pearl Street.
