Motor Vehicle Policy

An important feature of the St. Lawrence campus is its focus as a “walking campus.”  All of us-students, faculty, staff and visitors—should be confident of the ability to walk from place to place without dodging cars, motorcycles and other vehicles. The University has established procedures for registering and parking vehicles on campus.  A parking permit does not guarantee the availability of parking space, but grants the privilege of using SLU parking areas.  The intent is to assure a safe flow of motor vehicles and pedestrian traffic, orderly parking for students, employees and visitors, and maintenance of emergency access to all buildings and areas on campus.  A copy of the complete motor vehicle policy is provided to all students when they register their motor vehicle with the University. In order to be legally parked on St. Lawrence University property, all student vehicles, including vehicles of students residing off campus, must be registered each academic year with Security and Safety.  Additional copies of the policy brochure are available at the Security and Safety office.

The Motor Vehicle Policy covers all automobiles, SUVs, trucks, motorcycles, mopeds, go peds, motorized scooters, and both winter and summer off-road vehicles.

For authorized vehicular access to the inner campus, you must register in advance at the Security and Safety Office.
