Parking at the University of Georgia Campus
University of Georgia manages campus parking through UGA Transportation & Parking Services, whose site handles permit registration, permit access, citation payments, and account support (tps.uga.edu). Drivers heading to the campus at 215 North Herty Drive should use the University’s permit system where required rather than treating campus spaces as unrestricted public parking.
Visitor parking is available in campus garages, with visitor garage parking starting at $1 for half an hour, rising to $3 for one hour and $5 for one to two hours, followed by $1 for each additional hour (ramblerathens.com). The main campus decks include Tate Deck, Hull St. Deck, South Campus Deck, North Deck, and East Deck (apartmentsforathens.com).
