I would like to know how to drive there or where to park for an event

General

• MTSU has a mobile app. Download it to help with campus navigation.
• The main MTSU maps and directions page can provide valuable tips for getting to campus.
• Parking passes will be available at the registration desk.
• Your pass allows you to park in any legal parking space for red, white, or green tags (reserved spaces are not open for guest parking). There are no conference reserved spaces. Please read the relevant signage for policies regarding various lots and be sure that you park in spaces that are not reserved. Some lots require the appropriate tags at all times, including nights and weekends. The conference is not responsible for parking tickets.
• If you have an appropriate disabled parking decal, you may park in any designated spot on campus, but you MUST register with parking services.
