Whether you are bringing a car to campus or planning to explore Stevens Point on foot or bike, we offer a range of transportation options to help you get where you need to go.
Parking on Campus:
Students who bring a car will need to purchase a parking permit through UWSP Parking Services. Permits are required in all campus lots and are available for different locations based on student housing and need.
Permit sales begin on July 15 at 8 a.m. for graduate students, seniors and juniors, July 17 at 8 a.m. for sophomores and returning freshman, and July 22 at 8 a.m. for incoming freshman. Students will receive an email with step-by-step instructions for purchasing their $300 permit online. Mark you calendars because permits are on a first-come, first-serve basis. After they are they are sold out, there is a waitlist process. Motorcycles permits are also available to purchase. Mopeds (50 cc’s and under) can park by the bike racks on campus without contacting Parking Services.
Alternative Parking:
- Remote Lot Option: For students who don’t need daily parking near residence halls, remote lots are a cost-saving alternative. Shuttle service and regular pick-up options make this choice both budget-friendly and accessible. The remote lot option (Sentry Dixon St.) is 1.5 miles from campus, on the city bus route, and is $250.
- Commuter Student Options: Commuters also have dedicated permit types and can select locations closest to academic buildings and resources.
- Rideshare: Students can join the official UWSP Rideshare group on the ZeeMee App.
- City Bus: The bus is free with a valid UWSP ID. Bus tracker, routes and schedule can be found, here.
