Where to Park, Eat, and Stay

Arrive Early

We expect there to be a high volume of visitors for each Campus Day event, so we encourage you to arrive early.

Entering Campus

When arriving on campus, you may enter from the following locations:

• Reynolda Road (Recommended)
• Polo Road
• University Parkway

Look for the designated signs for Campus Day parking once you’re on campus.

Note: There is an on-going construction project (The Grounds and the pedestrian pathway) near the University Parkway entrance, so if you choose to enter campus at this location you may encounter delays.

We have spaces allotted for Campus Day attendees. Enter campus from one of the three main entrances mentioned above. Follow the signs to the designated lots.

Note: Use the zoom out featured on the interactive map below to view all designated Campus Day parking lots. Additionally, you may refer to the Parking Lots section on our Activities Map for more information.

Once You’re Here

At check-in, the accepted student will receive a preloaded dining card (maximum value: $25.00). The card may be used at any dining location on campus and shared among guests of the student.
