Freshmen Parking at Purdue.

Hi guys!

My dad bought me a car and is bringing it to Purdue in a few days. So I left many things at home. I’ve since learned that Freshmen have to live 1.5 miles away in order to get a parking permit (correct me if I’m wrong).

But it’s too late and I think the car is coming anyway. Is there a place close by (like in town) where I can park the car? Along some street? Or is there any way to plead for them to grant an exception? What do I do? I live at Hilltop Apartments, if that helps

Please help!

Thanks in advance!
