parking options

Hello all,
I’ll be taking one class and it’s lab at Mason in the Fall. I’ll be on campus for 2 hours 1 day and about 8 hours on the 2nd day. What would you recommend for parking? Get the pass? park in visitors? any other options? I’m not familiar with the parking situation there but would like to avoid buying the expensive pass if I can.

thanks

If you come on the metro there is a free GMU shuttle to campus.
You could also take a CUE bus.
