Campus visits, events, and public access
Building access at the site uses the New College of Florida access system, and USF-issued access cards no longer open secured doors. If you are attending a campus event or need access to a particular building, confirm the arrangements with your event coordinator before arriving.
Building-hours listings differ on the university’s pages, particularly for Saturday. Check the official site before you go to confirm current hours and access arrangements.
Parking and getting around campus
Parking permits are required at the site 24 hours a day, seven days a week. For a visit under an hour, you may use reserved visitor spaces; for a longer visit, get a temporary visitor permit from Parking Services or the Information Desk in the main Rotunda.
For a special event, a one-day temporary visitor permit is free and may be available from the event coordinator, the main Rotunda Information Desk, or the Parking Services Office.
Temporary permits cannot be used in spaces marked as visitor spots. Event parking is usually assigned to South Lots 4 and 5, off Sea Gate Drive on the far southwest side of campus.
Event arrangements can vary for camps and conferences, so ask the event coordinator where to park. For events with 30 or fewer attendees, participants should receive an emailed temporary permit to display on the vehicle dashboard.
Visitors using a state disability placard or license plate also need to display a valid temporary visitor permit when parked in campus disabled spaces.
The campus map identifies university buildings, residence halls, parking areas, leased and reference buildings, construction zones, and university boundaries. Parking Services can be reached at (941) 359-4220 or sar-parking@usf.edu.
