Parking & Transportation

How do you get to King's? Fill out our short Campus Student and Staff Transportation Survey by April 24 to help us understand the transportation patterns on campus.

Due to space constraints, the number of parking spaces at King’s is limited.  Students are advised to carefully plan before driving to King’s and should take advantage of their LTC passes and the free shuttle service to and from the UWO main campus and Brescia. Parking on the streets adjacent to King’s is also limited and parking restrictions are strictly enforced. You'll find the parking lot map on the Campus Maps page.
 

Please note that King’s University College accepts no liability for theft or damage to cars in the parking lots. Ensure that your vehicle is locked and that no valuables are visible. Only cars with a special permit are allowed to park overnight on King’s property; all others will be towed at the owner’s expense.
