Student Parking at UMC:
- Medical students, with UMC parking stickers, can still park in all surface lots and the Shadow Lane garage.
- When those lots are full, students will now be directed to the overflow lot behind Lied Clinic, and be able to get shuttle service back to UMC.
- Every time you use the shuttle you get a coupon, from the driver, for $2.50 off cafeteria food.
- Weekends and after 5 p.m. M-F, students may use the Trauma Garage.
If you are routed to this overflow lot:
- Call 383-1810 on your way to the lot to request shuttle service, identify yourself as a medical student. The shuttle should be there waiting for you.
- If you know when you need to return to the lot, make arrangements with the driver for a pick up time at the NEW main entrance to UMC (the one facing Shadow Lane/Charleston).
- The shuttle runs 6 a.m. to 7 p.m.
- After 7 p.m., you can still get taken to the lot by a public safety officer. Call the same number and the dispatcher will have an officer pick you up.
