Evening Students
Students taking evening classes at MSOE may park free-of-charge from 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. on most MSOE parking lots provided they register their vehicle with the Public Safety Department and receive a no-fee Evening Parking Permit. These permits are available at the MSOE Public Safety Department main office starting the first day of classes (Sept. 6, 2011).

Motorcycle/Moped Parking
For both day and evening hours, motorcycles and mopeds do not require a parking permit, but they must be registered or re-registered each academic year with the Public Safety Department. Motorcycles/mopeds may only be parked in the designated motorcycle/moped areas at the west end of the State Street A Lot, located at 501 East State Street and the east end of the Broadway lot, 1036 N. Broadway. There is also indoor motorcycle/moped parking in the SLCC underground garage for $75 per quarter. Motorcycles/mopeds not registered with the Public Safety Department or parked in any other campus areas are subject to a citation without warning. Due to snow removal, there is no overnight motorcycle/moped on the two outdoor motorcycle/moped parking areas from the end of the fall quarter to April 1st.
