Parking Regulations

The speed limit on campus is 15 miles per hour. Pedestrians have the right-of-way in crosswalks at all times. Housing parking spaces are reserved for residents of that neighborhood (McDonald, O’Daniel, or residence halls); visitors must park in visitor areas only, and only during posted visitation hours. Campus lots have few restrictions, and those areas with restrictions are posted. Parking is allowed in marked spaces only. Parking is NOT allowed on boulevards, roadways, loading zones, within ten (10) feet of fire hydrants, or in other posted restricted zones identified by signs and yellow paint. 

A list of vehicle and parking regulations may be found at www.usi.edu/parking. If a vehicle is found in violation of any University traffic regulations, the vehicle’s registered owner will be held responsible. The schedule of fines is as follows: parking in a handicapped zone, reckless driving, speeding, and other moving violations—$50 each; wheel lock (‘boot’) removal—$40; all other violations—$10 for the first citation, $40 for subsequent violations.

For online vehicle registration, visit www.usi.edu/parking and select Online Vehicle Registration. 

Transportation and Parking Fees

Students will be assessed a transportation and parking fee for each semester, according to the number of hours in which they are enrolled: $115 for eight or more hours; $92 for four to seven hours; $69 for one to three hours. This fee will be added to each semester’s tuition bill. Students who are taking only distance learning or off-campus courses will not be assessed a transportation and parking fee that semester.  

Campus Apartment and Residence Hall Residents

Students living in campus apartment housing (McDonald West and East, O’Daniel North and South complexes) and residence halls will be issued a color-coded parking decal, to be permanently attached and displayed on the rear window of the vehicle. Apartment residents may park only in the area designated for their decal. This restriction includes visitor parking areas. Apartment and residence hall residents are allowed only one decal at a time. Apartment residents and residence hall residents are not permitted to park in campus lots between 6 a.m. and 3 p.m. on class days. Shuttle busses make regular rounds from the housing areas to the main campus during the normal school year. 

Faculty, Staff, and Commuter Students

Faculty, staff, and commuter students will not have a parking decal and are allowed to park in all campus lots, except where restricted by signage. 

Damaged or Stolen Parking Decals

If your parking decal is stolen or becomes damaged, notify the USI Parking Department immediately. A fee may be assessed for replacement. 

Disability Parking

State-issued handicapped parking placards, license plates, and University temporary handicap permits will be honored in all University parking lots.
