Map & Parking

This page provides information about how to get to the USC Aiken campus and where to park when you get there. All students, staff, and instructors are required to have a current campus parking permit decal displayed on their windshield (there is an exception for non-faculty instructors teaching a short course). You must park in spaces with white lines.

Map of Campus Buildings

Open the campus map. The Business & Education Building, where most of our classes are held, is number 5 on the map; use Parking Lot C. (Note: The Center for Lifelong Learning (CLL) Tech Center is shown as number 6 on the map, but it is no longer used for CLL classes.)

 

Parking Permits

All students, staff, and instructors must have a current campus parking permit decal displayed on their vehicle windshields when parking in the campus parking lots. There is no fee for this decal.

Parking permit decals expire the end of August each year. Those not displaying a decal or displaying an expired decal are subject to fines or having their vehicle towed.

To obtain your parking decal:

  1. Download the USC Aiken Parking Decal Form. (You may also get the form from the Continuing Education office, Business and Education Building, Room 104—see map for location of B&E Buidling, number 5 on the map.).
  2. Fill out the Parking Decal Form.
  3. Take your completed form, vehicle registration, and driver's license to the USC Aiken Business and Education Building, Room 104.

If you already have your decal, you do not need to get a new one until you reach the expiration date shown on the decal.

Instructors - Non-faculty instructors who are visiting campus only to teach a Center short course may obtain a temporary parking permit hang tag. Contact USC Aiken Continuing Education Department for more information (info@aikenlearning.org or 803-641-3741).

Parking

As noted above, all students, staff, and instructors must have a current parking permit decal displayed in the lower left corner (driver's side) of their windshield to park in any campus parking lot.

You may park in any lot on the campus. You must park only in spaces with white lines. Spaces with yellow lines are reserved for USC Aiken faculty.

Parking Lot C (see map) is convenient to the Business & Education Building where most CLL courses are taught.

The permit decal is required even if parking in handicap spaces with handicap permits. If no handicap spaces in a lot are open, those displaying handicap parking permits may park in the yellow-lined spaces normally reserved for USC Aiken faculty and staff. Your handicap permit must be on display.
