What you need to know about parking at UNF.

BetterPark Trying to find a parking spot at St. Johns Town Center or in downtown Jacksonville can be difficult. Trying to find a parking spot on campus with two minutes to go is certainly no different.

The University of North Florida’s Parking & Transportation Services department introduces BetterPark, the parking management campaign designed to help you reduce stress, avoid costly problems and focus on why you came to campus in the first place. Our first concern is safety, of course. But we also want to make the most efficient use of our parking resources. In this Web site, you will find out about the types of parking permits, which lots and garages you can park in, permit costs, what to do if you get a ticket, and a whole lot more. Click on the links and find out what you need to know, whether you are a student, a member of the faculty or staff, or a visitor.

If you are part of the UNF family, download the UNF brochure and keep a copy in your glove box.
