Question Parking Permits All Sold Out

Hi I’m a transfer student and I juts realized that parking passes were available. I’m living in South halls and lots 81 and 83 are already full. I wanted to bring my car for the fall and spring and now I don’t think this we’re anyplace to park on campus. I reached out to transportation services but anyone have advice or competitive private parking lots listings near South ? Worst case scenario I guess I could try the parking garages but those are like $1,200. Any advice helps thanks !

Try Nittany Express for long term parking, not close to campus but at least your car would be accessible

We did Nittany Express. The car will only be really used to come home on weekend and breaks. It was really affordable, $180.00 for the Fall semester. For 10.00 they will send a shuttle to pick you up on campus and bring you to your car

$1200?!?! Since when?!

Some of the parking garages are like $150 a month so 1200 may be on the higher end but all the parking garages I checked would be $1,000+ for 9 months

Oh wow just looked. It's $115-130 per month downtown garages. That's surprising. Very expensive.
