Leaving a Bicycle on Campus While Away

  • If you have a bicycle on campus, please consider taking it home with you over the break, or if leaving it on campus, please secure it appropriately in one of the indoor bike rooms. Bikes left outdoors on campus may impede snow removal, are subject to undue wear and tear from winter weather conditions and are often vulnerable to theft.

Residential Hall Students--Leaving a Motor Vehicle On Campus While Away

  • The upper deck above the Gutterson Garage is closed to overnight parking from 11:00 pm-7:00 am, November 15th through April 1st.  To allow for snow removal and maintenance, do not leave your vehicle parked in its assigned residential area. Vehicles with valid residential permits of any color designation must park within the interior levels of the Garage during the periods listed at the top of this page. Vehicles left on campus in Residential Lots are subject to towing without notice.
  • We realize all of you do not come and go at the same time. If you are leaving for break prior to November 14, or returning later than December 2, and leaving a car parked on campus in your absence, you must contact parking@uvm.edu prior to November 14.
  • Those with fall semester permits expiring in December of 2022 must not leave their vehicle parked on campus during the semester break that begins on December 20, 2022 but must take your vehicle home.
  • You are responsible to know the expiration date of your permit prior to leaving or parking a motor vehicle.  Please refer to your account for all information regarding your current permit.
