BPARK - Park & Ride  (formerly BullStreet District)

A Park & Ride permit (BPARK) will be available for the academic year for commuting students, faculty and staff only. Permit holders will only be able to park in the S35 - CLA North lot.  During the fall and spring semesters, shuttles dedicated to that lot leave every 20 minutes and drop off on Pendleton St. on either end of the Horseshoe from 7 am to 7 pm Monday through Friday only.  The BPARK Park & Ride permit does not allow permit holders to park in any other lots.

Where Can I Park on Campus?

Consult the Faculty/Staff Permit Reference Guide for details on each permit, including where that permit is allowed.  Be sure to read and understand the regulations for parking on campus.

Event Parking in the Arena District

Parking lots near Colonial Life Arena (GS4, AD16,N1,FS4, FS11, CS1 and S35) are occasionally used for event parking.  Permit parking may be restricted in these lots during these events. 

Students, faculty, and staff with a valid USC parking permit for those lots will still be able to park there if space is available. If the lots are full, you will be directed to an alternate lot to park.

Accessible Parking

Accessible parking is available.  Read more about accessible parking.

Motorcycle and Mopeds

MC permits are available in the Parking Services office.  Motorcycle and mopeds are NOT allowed in automobile spaces, metered spaces, bicycle racks, or inside any building.

Temporary Surface Lot Permits

Temporary surface lot permits are available based on your status. Temporary permits must be purchased in the Parking office.
