Greek Life Parking Permits

Most Vandals living on campus leave their personal vehicle at home and use alternative transportation to get across campus and around town. Our campus and downtown Moscow fit within a two-mile diameter circle, making our community very walkable, bike-able and boardable. SMART Transit fixed route buses are free for all users, reach most locations around Moscow, and have seven stops on campus. SMART Transit buses operate Monday-Friday, 6:40 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Students flying into the Pullman-Moscow Regional Airport (PUW) for the fall '22 semester are invited to request a free shuttle ride from the airport to campus, offered by Parking and Transportation Services. Request a ride here. Shuttles will be offered for flights arriving prior to 6 p.m. from Aug. 15 -21, 2022.

Vandals with temporary or permanent mobility-limiting disabilities or conditions can take advantage of our free Vandal Access Service to get wherever you need to go on campus Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. during fall and spring academic sessions.

Getting home on breaks is easy on the Vandal Break Bus or using regional transit such as buses or flights through nearby airports.
