Commuter Students

The Office of Residential & Commuter Life strives to be an available resource to all students who come to Â鶹ֱ²¥. As a commuter or residential student, it is our goal to support your educational, social, informational, and aspirational needs. Being a commuter student, you have access to all services, organizations, and programs that were created to help in personal and professional exploration. With multiple opportunities for involvement and connection, we encourage commuter students to interact with us and others on campus to build life-long relationships. Although you do not live with us, we hope we can make Â鶹ֱ²¥ feel a little more like home… You are a Knight even if you do not spend the night!!!

Commuter Parking

Commuter students must purchase their commuter parking passes from MUPD and park in designated lots. To locate these lots, please review the Campus Map. We encourage you to park at the Major Taylor Velodrome and utilize the free shuttle bus to main campus. Shuttle users must show a valid Â鶹ֱ²¥ ID to ride.  More information, including a schedule, may be found here

Commuter Tips

You are a commuter, which also means that construction zones, severe weather, and accidents could impact your travel time. As you begin to commute to campus, try a couple different routes to map out alternate options before you need to use one.

Download a weather app to stay up-to-date on Indianapolis weather. The weather often changes unpredictably in central Indiana, so it is important to plan ahead of time.
