Student Parking

All Trine University students that drive a vehicle on campus are required to purchase a permit. Trine University students are permitted to park in lots that are labeled according to the permit assigned. Freshmen assigned to honors housing may park in the silver only. Sophomores, juniors and seniors are allowed to park in the parking lots as determined by their housing assignment/commuter status. Upper campus lots are for faculty staff and commuters only.

Student permits must be displayed in the rear window on the lower passenger's side corner on the outside of the vehicle. Citations may be issued for improper permit placement. Check signs at the lot entrances to see if you are permitted to park in the lot.
