Hey there! I’m going to be applying to UKY in the next few days, but I was curious regarding parking and couldn’t find any solid answers online.
I will be bringing a car to UKY as a Freshman, and I am wondering where I will have to park it and the details of such. I’m a big car guy, and curious where to park and if it is possible to park in a large covered garage structure. It looked like I can park in K lot - whatever that means?
What’s the deal?
Thanks!
i am relaying what my OOS Freshman says about parking. Your options are all located by the football stadium which is a half mile from his dorm. It isn’t covered. You will need to move your car on fridays before games and bring it back on Sunday. I don’t know if you have an option to rent a garage spot.
My son did not bring car to school.
There is a parking garage on central campus next to the library called Rose Street Parking Garage (R2). It’s one of the more expensive ones (around $500 for the year I think) but you don’t have to move your car for football games like K lot. I got a pass in there my freshman year, but it’s pretty hard because it fills up quick. I got it seconds after the window to get them opened, but they all filled up within 10-15 minutes after the window opened. Most freshman miss this opportunity which is why they have to park in K lot. K lot is cheaper (around $250-300 I think), but it’s just the parking lot to the football stadium (which is why you have to move your car for home games) and its a pretty far walk from campus.
There are buses that can take it from the K-lot to main campus and back.
