Dear Campus Community,

We're writing to remind everyone about the importance of adhering to our campus parking regulations, specifically regarding the use of parking hang tags.

Key points to remember:

On Wednesday, August 20, parking Lot I-North and Lot I-South will be closed to campus for parking due to new student move in.

Thank you for your cooperation as we welcome new and returning students to campus.

Sincerely,

UIS Parking

Please note that employees not enrolled in payroll deduction must purchase a new parking hang tag online for the 2025-26 academic year, as Parking Operations does not accept payment over the phone or on-site.

Please be aware that Parking Lot G will be closed on Wednesday, June 25, so that the painters may restripe the parking lot.
