Chicago Parking

Parking rules and regulations for the Chicago campus have been developed with recommendations from the University Parking Committee and University Central Administration. The committee consists of representatives of the faculty, staff and student body. The Chicago campus parking policy was developed to:

  • Ensure that current facilities allow maximum capacity and are allocated for use in the best interests of the University and its affiliates, including employees, students, patients and area visitors.
  • Ensure an equitable assignment of all available University parking spaces.
