2012 Spring Open House Parking

Admissions is in the process of notifying applicants of their acceptance to the University and all will be invited to attend Open House events in April. The importance of these Open Houses cannot be understated as they help the students and their parents make an informed decision about attending Boston University for the next four years. As a result we must provide Open House parking to these special guests by restricting permit parking in various facilities.

If you must drive to campus and are unable to find a space close to your normal location, alternate spaces will be available at the 808 Commonwealth or the Agganis Arena Garages.

Additionally, enhanced shuttle bus service for the Charles River Campus will be provided between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. For additional information including the shuttle schedule, and a list of shuttle stops, please visit the Parking & Transportation Services website (www.bu.edu/parking).

Note: Parkers with handicapped permits will have access to the handicapped spaces in all lots.

To avoid or minimize the effects of these parking restrictions you are strongly encouraged to car pool or to take public transportation on Open House Fridays.
