Parking Information

Parking on the Northwestern University campus is very limited. It is highly recommended that visitors use alternate means of transportation to reach campus if possible.

If you Drive - you have several options:

1. Park on one of the Evanston City Parking Lots - all within walking distance of Chambers Hall (recommended)

See: http://www.cityofevanston.org/parking/lots-garages/

or see the NUTC's Map (PDF) which clearly shows the location of the city lots.

2. Obtain a Visitor Parking Pass ($10/day) and look for a parking spot in one of the "F" Parking Lots
