Enjoy open parking on campus this summer

Friday, May 16, 2025

Are you parking on the Manhattan campus over the summer? Enjoy the perk of parking almost anywhere on campus during the summer semester. While a parking permit is still required, you can use your permit to park in any lot. For example, if you have a W permit, you can park almost anywhere, including the J, O, R, T, W and Z lots. The parking garage is excluded. Open parking begins May 19.

Please note that the restricted and reserved Y lots will still be off-limits. Regular parking permit restrictions will resume with the start of the spring semester on Aug. 25.

Campus visitors without a permit can utilize timed and metered parking spaces throughout the campus. Meters can be paid using coins or through the ParkMobile app. Monthly, weekly and daily parking permits are also available for campus visitors.

K-State parking permits for faculty and staff expire on July 31. Permits can be renewed online through the Parking Portal. For more information on permit and garage pricing, visit the pricing webpage.
