Getting There

Parking and Transportation

For a complete list of parking options at WSU visit the parking and transportation site.

Self-pay Parking options:

Parking is available at the Smith Center (CUE). 

You may also park in a specific parking zone on campus if you have purchased a WSU Parking Permit (see the WSU Parking map, http://www.parking.wsu.edu/Map, for more information about available parking). 

You may purchase your parking permit in advance of arriving on campus by going to the WSU Parking Services website at www.wsu.edu/parking.

Daily parking permits can also be purchased from the WSU Visitors Center for a variety of parking lots. A list of rates is available on the parking and transportation website, and directions may be found on the Visitors Center website.  

Provisional Free Parking in Blue and Gray Zones

During the week of August 17 to 21 parking is free in all Blue and Gray zones. Visit http://www.parking.wsu.edu/Map for locations.

Park and Ride Service:

If you have not purchased a parking permit, we encourage you to take advantage of the free bus service provided by Pullman Transit to all WSU students, faculty and staff. To take advantage of the park and ride option, you may park for free without a permit in the Park and Ride parking lots.  

There are two lots:

West of the Valley Intramural Play Field at the intersection of Valley Road and NE Merman Way, and on the east end of the Chief Joseph apartments on Terre View Drive. (See the WSU Parking map on-line for more detail at http://www.parking.wsu.edu/Map.) 

Pullman Transit Bus Service:

During the regular school year, you will need to show your WSU ID to board the bus for free.  During Orientation, drivers will allow you to ride for free without WSU identification. 

Pullman Transit Routes A and I will be running during orientation (go to www.pullmantransit.com for schedules).  Both of these routes stop at the Park and Ride lots. For directions to these academic buildings, please see the WSU Campus Map at www.wsu.edu/campusmap.
