Student parking information

2024-25 parking permits

Residential and commuter students are required to purchase a parking pass if they wish to park in any Augustana College parking lot.

Residential parking: Residential students are assigned parking locations based on their housing assignment for the academic year. Students may be assigned the next closest available parking lot/area when necessary because the college does not oversell parking lots. Residential parking lots are assigned based on availability, not student preference.

Commuter parking: Commuter students are assigned to a commuter parking permit which allows them to park in lots E, C, P, and G

We strongly encourage all students to read over the campus Parking Rules and Regulations. This will help students familiarize themselves with parking policies such as visitor/guest and temporary parking, parking ticket and booting policies, information on permit refunds, the general campus parking rules, etc.

Parking is first come, first served to ALL students. Students may be assigned the next closest available parking lot/area when necessary because the college does not oversell parking lots. Residential parking lots are assigned based on availability, not student preference.

Prices for residential and commuter permits

  • Full year: $230 (includes fall, J-term, and spring) 
  • Semester only: $130
  • Partial semester: $75
  • J-term only: $45

Parking lot information

Parking permits are assigned to the main parking lot/area. Augustana is a walking campus and students are expected to park only in the lots their assigned permit allows them to.

All faculty/staff lots are enforced from 7 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday. Students are prohibited from parking in any faculty/staff lot during the specified hours. There are four exceptions:

  1. Lot A1 (by Seminary Hall) is for Admissions visitors at all times.
  2. The area of Lot K designated for patrons of PepsiCo is limited to hours when PepsiCo is open. Overnight parking is prohibited.
  3. Lot I (Brodhal) is for Brodahl faculty, staff, and visitors at all times.
  4. Lot Q (by the Dance Studio) has clearly posted reserved parking on the east side spaces. The west side of lot Q is designated for patrons of PepsiCo and is limited to parking only during PepsiCo’s operational hours; overnight parking is prohibited.

Parking spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis to anyone with the appropriate permit for the lot. It remains the responsibility of the permit holder to find a legal parking space.
