Hi {{Lived-Mailing-Name}},

Before closing your laptop and logging out for the upcoming holiday weekend, take note of the important information and upcoming events we have for you. Our office and the University will be closed Friday, July 3rd, in observance of Independence Day. Keep this in mind when reaching out with questions or concerns, as there will be a delay in response.

Parking and Transportation Reminders

UVM encourages students to walk, bike, or use public transportation whenever possible. Campus and city buses are free for students and can get you to places like the grocery store, mall, airport, and train station.

UVM Bikes is a student-led bike co-op where you can learn how to keep your bike in tip-top shape or rent a bike for the academic year.

If you are planning to bring an electronic bike, scooter, or other e-micromobility device to UVM, please note that there are safety regulations for these devices and they can only be stored and charged in specific locations on campus. They are not allowed in Residence Halls.

Need a car occasionally? CarShare Vermont offers discounted memberships for UVM students.

Transfer and commuter students who would like to bring a car to UVM must purchase a permit to park on campus.

** If you are living on campus, the residential parking lottery is currently open, but closes at 10 am on July 6.

** If you are living off campus, commuter permits go on sale starting TODAY (July 1).

For more information, visit the Transportation and Parking Services website.
