PARKING
If you are visiting us by car, you have three choices for parking:
- Visiting over weekends, official holidays, and after 5 p.m. does not require parking permit – proceed directly to 2620 Yarbrough Drive (Dabney and Cox Halls). Note that the Cox and Dabney buildings are likely to be locked over the weekend. Thus, please call Alex (919-513-4377) or Tatyana (919-513-4375) upon arrival.
- On regular days you may park in any hourly Pay Lot or parking spaces with Parking Meters, located throughout campus. Visitors parked in these areas must pay the appropriate rates for parking. The most convenient Pay Lot is the Dan Allen Deck. From there, you walk to Dabney/Cox Hall.
- Visitors may purchase daily permits for $10 per day (price is subject to change) at the NCSU Transportation Office located at 2721 Sullivan Drive or a booth at the Pullen Drive entrance to the NCSU North Campus. The Transportation Customer Service area operates from 7 a.m. – 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. If you have parking questions, please contact the Transportation Office at 919-515-3424.
